Ontology Summit 2026
Ontologies: Past, Present, Future
20th Anniversary of the Ontology Summit
As the first summit was held 20 years ago in March 2006, the Ontology Summit 2026 will consist of a retrospective of past summits as well as both current ontology activities and future prospects.
Summit Chair Ken Baclawski
Track Chairs:
- Ontologies and AI Gary Berg-Cross
- Foundations and Tools Ken Baclawski
- Interoperability Ravi Sharma and Todd Schneider
- Education, Training and Certification John Beverley
The Ontology Summit is an annual series of events that involves the ontology community and communities related to each year's theme chosen for the summit. The Ontology Summit was started by Ontolog and NIST, and the program has been co-organized by Ontolog and NIST along with the co-sponsorship of other organizations that are supportive of the Summit goals and objectives.
As part of Ontolog’s general advocacy to bring ontology science and related engineering into the mainstream, we endeavor to facilitate discussion and knowledge sharing amongst stakeholders and interested parties relevant to the use of ontologies. The results will be synthesized and summarized in the form of the Ontology Summit 2026 Communiqué, with expanded supporting material provided on the web and in journal articles.
Process and Deliverables
The Ontology Summit 2026 will consist of virtual discourse (over our archived mailing lists), virtual presentations and panel sessions as part of recorded video conference calls. As in prior years the intent is to provide some synthesis of ideas and draft a communique summarizing major points.
Meetings are at Noon US/Canada Eastern Time on Wednesdays and last about an hour.
