STI Strategic Summit 2013

John Domingue and Sören Auer

Mission

Our mission is to exploit semantic technologies to address the various challenges associated with communication and collaboration at large scales. We acknowledge that these challenges include technical, social, policy and economic strands and thus our approach uses a hybrid combination of research, technology creation, exploitation, networking, dissemination, education and standardisation. In short our aim is to maintain semantics as an integral component of modern-day Information Systems leveraging the expertise and skillset of our Partners, Members and the wider semantic community.

Summit Goal

Every two years STI International will hold a Semantic Summit organized by the STI Fellows for the STI Board and selected Junior STI members. STI Semantic Summits will be intellectually, socially, and geographically stimulating and will address a small number of open scientific and domain or industry challenges of strategic importance to STI and to the Semantic Technology Community. They will be forward looking and will attempt to better understand the challenges and to set directions for STI Members, STI, and the Semantic Technology Community.
