Call for Workshop Proposals
44th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, (ER 2025)

================================================================

Dates: 20-23 Oct, 2025

================================================================

Continuing a long tradition, ER 2025 will host workshops to be held in
conjunction with the main conference. These workshops serve as an intensive
collaborative forum for exchanging innovative ideas about conceptual
modeling, and for discovering new frontiers for its use. We specifically
invite proposals for interactive workshops on new, emerging, or established
topics in conceptual modeling, or its application in specific domains. We
encourage workshop organizers to include activities that provide their
participants with a true workshop experience. Topics of interest include
foundations of conceptual models, theories of concepts, ontology-driven
conceptual modeling and analysis, methods and tools for developing,
communicating, consolidating, and evolving conceptual models, and
techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective
implementations.
