*** Overview ***
The 14th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Graphs (IJKG 2025) 
is a premium academic forum on Knowledge Graphs. The mission of IJCKG 
2025 is to bring together researchers in the international Knowledge 
Graph community and other related areas to present their innovative 
research results or novel applications of Knowledge Graphs. IJCKG has 
evolved from the Joint International Semantic Technology Conference 
(JIST), a joint event for disseminating research results regarding the 
Semantic Web, Knowledge Graphs, Linked Data and AI on the Web.

IJCKG 2025 will take place for the first time in Europe, hosted by the 
Institute of Computer Science at the Foundation for Research and 
Technology, Hellas (FORTH) in Heraklion, Crete, Greece.

*** Keynote Speakers ***
- Pascal Hitzler (Kansas State University, US), Knowledge Graphs in the 
Neurosymbolic AI Age
- Katja Hose (TU Wien), TBA
- Kang Liu (Chinese Academy of Sciences), Shuttle between Symbolic 
Knowledge and Neural Parameters

*** Awards! ***
Best Paper Award
Best Student Paper Award

*** Theme ***
The theme of this conference is “Knowledge Graphs and Large Language 
Models”, which aims to explore the intersection of these two 
cutting-edge fields and innovative opportunities for their integration, 
explore the role and application of knowledge graphs in cross-platform, 
cross-field and other AI tasks, and study knowledge representation, 
knowledge organization and storage, knowledge mining, knowledge fusion, 
automated reasoning and other key technologies of knowledge graph 
development in the context of Artificial General Intelligence, guide the 
transformation of knowledge graph related technologies, and lay the 
foundations for the ultimate realization of Artificial General 
Intelligence. The conference program will include workshops, keynotes, a 
frontiers and trends forum, industry forum, young scholars forum, 
evaluations and competitions, paper presentations, posters and demos. We 
invite scholars from academia to introduce the latest developments in 
related fields and development trends, and R&D experts in industry to 
share practical experience, and promote industry-university-research 
cooperation.

In addition to research papers and application papers, IJCKG 2025 will 
continue to set the theme of knowledge graph open resources, aiming to 
support and promote data resource sharing in academia and industry. 
Resources include but are not limited to: knowledge graphs/ontologies, 
datasets/evaluation sets, software tools/services/APIs/frameworks, 
protocols/standard specifications, etc. We encourage publishing 
resources in the Open Knowledge Graph community (OpenKG). Reviewers will 
comprehensively evaluate the quality of resources and papers along the 
dimensions of resource quality and potential influence, reusability 
(such as documentation), and availability (such as URLs and open source 
agreements), and OpenKG will review the selected open resources to carry 
out publicity and promotion.
