Hosted by: University of Geneva

Introduction

The PoEM working conference strives to improve the understanding of the practice of Enterprise Modeling (EM) by offering a forum for sharing experiences and knowledge between the academic community and practitioners from industry and the public sector. PoEM 2025 will take place in Geneva, Switzerland, from December 3 to December 5, 2025.

Theme: Enterprise Modeling for Sustainable Reindustrialization
