The Web Conference 2025

The Web Conference 2025 is the premier interdisciplinary forum for research on the World Wide Web and its societal impact, tracing its roots to the conference series that has tracked the web's evolution since the 1990s. This edition covers web mining and crawling, information retrieval, search engine algorithms, social network analysis, knowledge graphs, linked data, web security and privacy, and the application of natural language processing to web-scale text.

What makes the conference distinctive is the breadth of its audience: computer scientists, data engineers, social scientists, policy researchers, and industry practitioners all converge to examine the web as both a technical artifact and a social infrastructure. Anyone studying or building the systems through which humanity now communicates, shops, and learns will find The Web Conference an indispensable venue.
