The annual Knowledge Cities World Summit (KCWS-2017) will be hosted this year by the Peruvian city of Arequipa. Guarded by volcanoes, a wonderful climate, the city of eternal blue sky, the city that holds in its streets the magic of a historic past and ist continuity in the present, with its own label, with personality, style and spirit, a city of which one never gets tired to see and know, a city in which the mixture of the times flows harmoniously.

The 10th Knowledge Cities World Summit 2017, that has been held in countries around the world is coming to South America for the second time.
