The 21st International Workshop on Smart Media Adaptation, AI and Personalization (SMAP) is the evolution of the Semantic Media Adaptation and Personalization initiative, founded in 2006 to discuss the state of the art, recent advances and future perspectives for semantic media adaptation and personalization. As Social Media applications and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have substantially transformed the way organizations, communities, and individuals interact, SMAP's scope has extended towards this new trend, seeking to bring together researchers from the social & semantic web, as well as from the AI communities. After 20 successful workshops starting from Athens (2006), and then London (2007), Prague (2008), San Sebastian (2009), Limassol (2010), Vigo (2011), Luxembourg (2012), Bayonne (2013), Corfu (2014), Trento (2015), Thessaloniki (2016), Bratislava (2017), Zaragoza (2018), Larnaca (2019), Online (2020, 2021, 2022), Limassol (2023), Athens (2024), and Mystras (2025), the SMAP workshop series has been consolidated as a reference event to discuss the newest advances in the field.
