The 5th World Congress on Intellectual Capital (in conjunction with the 23rd
McMaster Business Conference and the 3rd World Congress on E-Commerce)
sponsored by the Management of Innovation and New Technology Research
Centre at McMaster University (widely recognized as Canada's most innovative
university!) will be held January 16-18, 2002 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
The World Congress on Intellectual Capital is recognized globally as the
largest and most prestigious conference of its kind. It brings both
academic researchers and professional practitioners together to present,
discuss and review the latest issues and trends in the areas of intellectual
capital, knowledge management, innovation, new technology, human capital
and organizational learning. Last year's conference attracted 536 delegates
from over 30 countries including several exhibitors and outstanding keynote
speakers. The event was covered by several newspapers, TV and magazine
media outlets from over 10 countries.
The first four events in 1996, 1998, 1999 and 2000 attracted approximately
1,500 delegates (practitioners, academics and Ph.D. students) from over 40
countries. This year we are planning an even better event which will
include a KM technology expo, a PhD recruiting fair, a CKO forum, a
knowledge caf�, and a special government and non-for-profit stream of best
practices.
Paper submissions can be conceptual, theoretical, empirical, experimental,
or case studies. All accepted papers will be published in full or in
abstract form in a CD of proceedings. Prizes will be awarded for the best
conference papers. Selected papers will be published in a Special Edition
of the Journal of Intellectual Capital which is the top journal in the
field.
