About the Conference

Modern organisations are overflowing with data—yet fragmented systems can erode institutional memory, weaken governance, and heighten compliance risk. This conference focuses on moving from isolated disciplines to a unified information ecosystem.

By integrating Records Management, Archives, Data, Research, and Knowledge Management, institutions can strengthen accountability, align with POPIA, and enable evidence‑based decision‑making. Join practitioners, policymakers, ICT leaders and academics to turn information into a strategic asset.

This conference provides a platform for thought leaders to share strategies, innovations, and solutions that support secure, compliant, accessible, and future‑ready information ecosystems.
Participants can expect expert dialogues, capacity‑building workshops, hands‑on demonstrations, and deep networking opportunities.
