| Conference Chair: | Maria do Rosário Oliveira Martins, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal | | Programme Chair: | Miguel de Castro Neto, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal | | Keynote Speaker | Professor José Manuel Tribolet, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa - Instituto Superior Técnico | In its 4th year, the European Conference on Information Management and Evaluation will be held at the Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal and welcomes both researchers and practitioners as they come together to develop their understanding of both theory and practice in all aspects of IT/IS management and evaluation and share, formally and informally, their knowledge and expertise. The Universidade NOVA de Lisboa was founded on the 11th of August 1973, and is the youngest of Lisbon's three state Universities. Integrated within a framework of expansion and diversification of higher education, the University adopted a new model within the Portuguese system that stressed interdisciplinary approaches, technological developments while, at the same time, safeguarding offerings in traditional academic domains including medicine, sciences and humanities. Since its inception, NOVA has aimed to innovate higher education in Portugal and to contribute to the social and economic development of the country. NOVA is a decentralised University; its Faculties and Institutes enjoy a great deal of autonomy. Presently, it has 14 200 students, of whom 1400 are enrolled in graduate programs. Since its inception it has offered high quality, innovative and pioneering programs within the Portuguese academic framework such as: Computer Sciences (1976), Communication Sciences (1979), Master of Business Administration (1980), Musicology (1980), Physics and Materials Engineering (1981), PhD program in Law (1996-97), Master in Public Administration (2005).
