ConTech 2019 and EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) have announced a partnership to ensure more librarians attend the event in December. EBSCO will sponsor the conference — a sponsorship that will include a submission process that will allow four librarians to attend for free as well as a 50 percent discount for all librarian attendees, along with two opportunities for library student bursaries.
ConTech 2019 is a two-day conference specifically designed for information providers, information professionals, users and content owners who increasingly address the challenges of competing in a data world driven by machine learning, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies. ConTech was born because the intersection between information, content and data science is one of the most exciting, disruptive and unpredictable areas of publishing and information right now. It is the biggest tech revolution to hit the information world since the birth of the internet. The conference takes place December 5-6 at the Millennium Gloucester Hotel in London.
Librarians may apply for one of the four complimentary places by completing an online form by September 30. Recipients will be selected by an independent adjudicator on October 2. Librarians interested in attending can leverage the discount by booking online to receive 50 percent off on the two-day delegate rate.
Interested parties may visit https://contechlive.com/contech-2019-student-bursary/ for more information about the student bursary, and apply by November 15.
