EMWCon Spring 2017

The Enterprise MediaWiki Conference Spring 2017, or EMWCon Spring 2017, will be held Wednesday to Friday, March 8-10, 2017, in McLean, VA (Washington, DC suburb) USA. It will be a three-day conference featuring discussions of topics related to "Enterprise MediaWiki", i.e. the usage of MediaWiki software by and within companies, non-profits, governments and other organizations. It is open to anyone who uses, or would like to learn more about, MediaWiki within organizations.

EMWCon Spring 2017 will be located at MITRE, a not-for-profit organization that manages Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) for US government organizations.

This conference is the second EMWCon. It is a spinoff of the similarly-named Semantic MediaWiki Conference, or SMWCon. SMWCon is a twice-yearly conference, which occurs in the spring and fall; it will not be having a Spring 2017 event, in order to make room for this EMWCon. EMWCon and SMWCon are not that different from one another: they are both three-day events, and, despite its specific name, SMWCon tends to also have discussions that cover the use of enterprise MediaWiki as a whole.
