DBpedia Day brings together researchers, developers, practitioners, and
organizations working on Knowledge Graphs and the technologies that
enable them. We invite contributions from leading experts as well as
emerging initiatives that are shaping the future of the Knowledge Graph
ecosystem.

This year's event focuses on two complementary themes:

* Knowledge Graphs – new, emerging, and established knowledge graphs
that provide valuable structured knowledge.
* Tools, Methods, and Systems for Knowledge Graphs – technologies that
create, maintain, analyze, connect, enrich, and exploit knowledge graphs.

We are particularly interested in submissions that discuss pressing
challenges as well as success stories in publishing, analyzing,
maintaining, and utilizing Knowledge Graphs. The goal of DBpedia Day is
to showcase innovative knowledge graph solutions, highlight successful
long-term initiatives, and foster discussion on the next generation of
technologies that will unlock the full potential of structured knowledge.
