The ACM Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM) is the premier international conference on topics at the confluence of information retrieval, databases, and knowledge management. Running annually since 1992, CIKM attracts top talent from industry and academia with the goal of fostering collaboration and bridging the academic-commercial gap in the database, information retrieval, machine learning, and knowledge management communities. We look for prospective submissions of highly interactive full-/half-day workshops proposing novel research, deepening established research topics, or presenting practical applications on the many aspects of the data lifecycle (data acquisition, pre-processing, modelling, integration/aggregation, storage, analysis, and consumption). Interdisciplinary workshops bridging across different communities are also highly encouraged. Workshops will complement the main CIKM conference to be held in-person at Seoul, Korea, from November 10-14, 2025. The workshops are planned to take place on 14 November 2025.

Please use the CIKM 2025 Workshop Proposal Template for your submission. Submit the proposal here through Easychair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=cikm2025). Workshop proposals are reviewed based on the quality of the proposal, their relation to the main CIKM topics, the likelihood of attracting enough participants, and the hosting capacity of the conference.

The CIKM 2025 conference will be held in-person in Seoul, Korea. To enhance the in-person experience, it is required for each workshop to at least plan for a subset of the organizers to be attending the conference and organizing the workshops in-person.

Exact workshop paper submission and author notification due dates are at the discretion of workshop organizers; a recommended timeline is indicated below.

Note that the paper acceptance notification deadline should remain September 30 (or earlier), so authors of accepted papers still have at least a week to take advantage of Early-Bird Registration fees. Workshop papers will not be included in the ACM proceedings. Any decision on if and where proceedings are to be archived is left to the organizers. To help preserve the authors’ ability to submit a revised version of their paper to a conference or journal, joining the volume is suggested to be left at the discretion of the authors. At least one author of each accepted paper must register to present the work on-site in Seoul, Korea as scheduled in the conference program.

All authors must adhere to the ACM Conflict of Interest policy. For full details, please visit this site:
