This year’s Congress focuses on the importance of knowledge as a strategic asset, featuring successful case studies from professionals
who have made a real difference with knowledge management in their organisation.

What is a conversational event?
This congress will follow an interactive conversational format. Each speaker will present a case study for 25
minutes and conclude their presentation with a question to the audience. The remaining 15-20 minutes of each
session will be given to the audience to discuss the speakers talk and the question at their tables before going
into a traditional Q&A.
This conversational format is intended to create an informal, relaxed atmosphere in which you, the conference
participants, can get to know each other, learn from each other and build relationships.
Remember to tweet - over the past three years KM Australia has become one of the most tweeted
