Table of Contents

The SMWCon Fall 2013 will take place in Berlin, Germany from October 28th to 30th 2013. It is the 8th Semantic MediaWiki conference bringing together users, developers and all other people interested in semantic wikis.

Following the success of recent SMWCons, we will have one Tutorial and two Conference Days:

• the Tutorial Day where experts will teach various topics related to wikis: usage, applications, development, business models etc.
• the Conference Days that gather people from academia, business, government and non-profit organizations about applying semantic wikis and about newest developments in the field.

For more information about the conference series, see SMWCon. For general discussions or questions about this conference please use the discussion page or user mailing list.
