    For this conference, we are organizing two streams of sessions related to knowledge in organizations and, for the first time, in nations-developing nations. The first is a stream on Knowledge as a Nation Development Strategy, which will have two sessions, viz., Developing Knowledge Economy, and Building Knowledge Society. The emphasis of papers expected in this stream should be on how countries can deploy knowledge as a strategy to develop their economy and society. The second stream on knowledge consists of papers on Knowledge Analytics that invites papers in the areas of Knowledge Management Analytics and Knowledge Work Analytics.
