Last year's IA Summit attracted well over 600 attendees from a wide range of fields, from 21 countries, and from beginners to experienced IAs. As this will be the 10th IA Summit, we are seeking proposals for presentations, panels, case studies, research papers, posters and pre- conference seminars, hands-on workshops and consortia that address this year's theme: Expanding Our Horizons. Proposals can stretch this theme by looking back over our history, forward into emerging trends, platforms and technologies, in addition to addressing our core IA principles and the business of IA. The theme is wide open for interpretation and we look forward to seeing proposals that explore the field in ways that interest people most, and from a wide range of backgrounds, disciplines and functions. Because user experience design is not just about methods and deliverables, but also about getting results for employers and clients, this year we will have a specific track devoted to business, strategy & management. Building on the tradition from the past two events, we will continue to seek and present research papers that make empirical or theoretical contributions to information architecture. (You do not have to be affiliated with an academic institution to submit a research paper.) We encourage submissions from both within the field of IA - practitioners, academics and students alike - and the related fields of library science, user experience, interaction design and user- centered design; as well as from those fields and disciplines that go beyond the traditional horizons of IA and the web. How and when to submit: For more information about the various tracks and how to submit a proposal, please see: http://iasummit.org/2009/ When: Now! We're currently accepting submissions until October 31st, 2008, if accepted we'll notify you via email during the first two weeks of January 2009.

A customer wants to know how prices compare in these three countries, eg which is the most/least pricey etc. I have asked for cost proposals from a few companies in each country, but it would also be nice to hear if someone has insights to share from previous assignments in these countries :-) Many thanks and all the best, Jeanin Day Antrop, Sweden -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Fr?n: euroia-bounces at list.informationdesign.org [mailto:euroia-bounces at list.informationdesign.org] F?r Andrea Resmini Skickat: den 24 september 2008 21:55 Till: EuroIA ?mne: Re: [EuroIA] Sponsored pre-summit drinks at EuroIA Now, how come this list gets alive only when it's time to think about drinking?

"Our panel has been presented successfully, at the fourth European IA Conference in Amsterdam. The reaction from the audience was a general approval of the work that has been done so far. But also a request for the initiative to become more concrete. People would like to join us and make an effort, but need to know where and how their contribution can benefit the most. In the forthcoming time, we will take the steps to provide the necessary platforms to receive this attention and inform about our work and plans, so anyone interested can buy in on the specific actions we need to take to bring this further."
