EuroIA invites your participation to this premier European event on Information Architecture.

Join us in Copenhagen, Denmark, September 25-26, 2009, for two incredible days of presentations, panels, and networking with information architects from across Europe and around the world. And we're working on providing an exciting menu of four half-day precons on the 24th, so stay tuned for our latest developments.

This year we will explore the theme of “Beyond Structure”. That’s because websites have moved to a new level. Any random page can be accessed from Google. Pages themselves may consist of information from many sources. And even the concept of a “page” is changing thanks to new backend technologies. In other words, we’ve moved beyond the traditional sitemap and into a new and exciting era of web development.

Who should participate?

* Anyone concerned with the design of navigation, organization, labeling, and search systems that help people find and manage information more successfully.
* Librarians, webmasters, and content owners responsible for creating taxonomies and information architectures.
* Application Developers who design web and software solutions and select the technologies and staff to support them.
* Project and business managers needing to understand the benefits and challenges of information architectures in electronic information spaces.
