Interdisciplinary thinking is a key success factor for any community. Embracing this principle, the 26th International Conference on Community Services (I4CS 2026) proudly adopts the motto "People Empower Technology". Ranked C-level in CORE, this milestone event will be held at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Ballerup campus, near Copenhagen, from June 15 to 17, 2026.

I4CS 2026 is dedicated to exploring the challenging frontiers of modern community systems, services, and applications. The rapid evolution of web technologies and smart mobile devices has propelled ICT support for communities to an unprecedented level. To invent novel solutions for community support, multi-disciplinary collaboration among researchers, service providers, and industrial partners is essential.

We warmly invite the global academic community to join us at DTU, close to Denmark's vibrant capital, to share insights and drive innovation. Submit your research contributions and participate actively in shaping I4CS 2026 into a memorable and impactful event.
