Posted on behalf of Christoph Haxel. Wendy From: office office [mailto:office@haxel.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 01, 2011 3:31 AM To: Christoph Haxel Subject: Early booking price for the 2011 ICIC in Barcelona expires next month Dear Colleague, Just a reminder that the early booking price for the 2011 ICIC meeting in Barcelona expires next month. If you are planning to attend the meeting but have not yet sent in your booking, please do so soon and save yourself some money (200 EUR !!): www.haxel.com/icic/2011/registration<http://www.haxel.com/icic/2011/registration> Full conference details are at: www.icic.eu<http://www.icic.eu> Subject Areas for the 2011 Programme The traditional focus of the ICIC programmes is subjects of interest to information professionals in a scientific or technical environment. As in previous years, this year's programme contains a number of presentations examining aspects of patent information retrieval, including drug discovery; patent information presents many challenges and is thus an excellent test-bed when it comes to information technology. The ICIC meeting's roots in chemical information also ensure that that area features prominently; chemical information was one of the first fields to attract modern information technologies back at the end of the nineteenth century and the very beginning of the twentieth. Search and Retrieval is covered by many presentations, including those by David Milward (UK), Anne Bülow (Denmark), Josef Eiblmaier (Germany), James Ryley (USA), Gregory Grefenstette (France) and Ron Kaminecki (USA). Another interesting group of papers explores the challenges of developing modern information centres, with Stefano Caporusso (Switzerland), Dennie Heye (Netherlands) and Thorkild Sørensen (Denmark). And current 'hot' information areas connected with mobile information, social network information and e-business are discussed by Randall Marcinko (USA), Georges Fischer (France), Antony Williams (UK) and Antoine Raulin (France). This year, the 2011 ICIC Patent Panel examines whether we are working towards a changed and interesting future for all the participants in Intellectual Property. Patent professionals, including lawyers, users, suppliers and developers will give their views in a panel chaired and animated by Pierre Buffet of Questel. The five expert panellists are Ann Chapman of Minesoft (a service provider), Alfred Elmaleh of the French Petroleum Institute (a patent professional), Monika Hanelt of Agfa Graphics (a patent information expert), James Ryley of SumoBrain (a service and software provider) and Yo Takagi of WIPO (in charge of Global Infrastructure). The panellists will examine and discuss, with the audience, a range of questions relating to the future of the patent information domain. The future scenarios touched upon will be of interest to everyone at the ICIC meeting. The 2011 programme promises to be even better, more topical and more vibrant than ever. We are looking forward to seeing you in Barcelona.
