July 7-8, 2018 at the University of Zurich, Switzerland

The ACM Collective Intelligence Conference Series is an interdisciplinary event sponsored by SIGCHI that brings together researchers from academia, business, nonprofits, governments and the world at large to share insights and ideas relevant to understanding and designing collective intelligence in its many forms thereby fostering the use of collective intelligence.

In its first foray outside the USA, this year, Collective Intelligence will be held in beautiful Zurich, Switzerland, on July 7-8, 2018. The conference will be partially co-located with HCOMP 2018, the 6th Annual AAAI Conference on Human Computation and Crowdsourcing, which will take place from July 5-8. By bringing together these two interdisciplinary communities, we will foster new connections among collective intelligence and crowdsourcing scholars and practitioners, across diverse fields including human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence, economics, business, and design.
