Dear colleagues,

As General Co-Chair of COMPLEX NETWORKS 2026, I am pleased to invite you to join us in Granada, Spain, for the 15th edition of the International Conference on Complex Networks and Their Applications, which will take place from December 2–4, 2026, with tutorials on December 1.

This anniversary edition will be a special moment for the conference series. COMPLEX NETWORKS is a genuinely interdisciplinary venue where researchers from network science, computational social science, sociology, political science, economics, physics, computer science, and related fields meet around a shared interest in relational data and complex systems.

We particularly welcome contributions on social networks, computational social science, collective behavior, online systems, information diffusion, political networks, socio-economic systems, science of science, historical networks, and temporal or multilayer social structures.

Granada, with its exceptional historical heritage and vibrant academic atmosphere, will provide an inspiring setting for scientific exchange. The program will feature keynote lectures by Alexandra Brintrup, Nitesh Chawla, Kimmo Kaski, Bruno Lepri, and Eckehard Schöll, as well as tutorials by Fariba Karimi and Huijuan Wang.

Submissions are invited as full papers for the Springer proceedings and as extended abstracts for presentation at the conference. Selected contributions will also be considered for journal special issues.

Submission deadline: September 2, 2026
