  (Host: College of Information, University of North Texas)
  The SIG-KM International Research Symposium showcases the works of scholars and practitioners researching the knowledge management field. The primary goal is to encourage and empower participants who are new in knowledge management. Through this symposium students and early career researchers can network and present their research to others in the field. This would help the participants to receive feedback on their work before submitting their research to peer-reviewed publications. Additionally, participants can find mentors and research collaborators beyond their immediate professors. These events open doors to new work opportunities and new connections.
