ECIS 2013 - 21st European Conference on Information Systems

It is our honor and pleasure to bring the IS community back to the Netherlands, nearly 20 years after the 2nd ECIS-conference was held in the Netherlands in 1994. In 2013, the conference is organized in Utrecht where we will celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Treaty of Utrecht, signed in 1713. The Treaty of Utrecht also inspired the proposed conference theme: “Beyond Borders”. ECIS2013 features a topical, diverse and exciting set of conference tracks. Track chairs and associate editors represent a wide range of countries and topics.

Research, Research-in-Progress, and Teaching Cases
Papers for ECIS cover all aspects of information systems, broadly defined, and may take the form of completed research papers and research-in-progress. Research papers should document established results and be presented according to the highest academic standards. Research-in-progress may address work still under development; academic rigor is, however, still expected. The Teaching Cases track has specific guidelines for submissions (see the info on the website).
Research papers, research-in-progress, and teaching cases will be published in the ECIS conference proceedings and made available in the AIS eLibrary (aisel.aisnet.org/ecis/). Research papers and teaching cases will be presented in interactive conference track sessions. Research-in-progress papers will be presented in a poster session specifically designed to allow interaction between authors and their interested colleagues.
Formatting and Submission
Authors should submit to the track that best fits the research. Research papers and research-in-progress papers are limited to 12 and 7 pages in length respectively. Teaching cases can be up to 14 pages long. All submissions must use the Word template on the website. Submissions to ECIS2013 must be original and must NOT already have been published previously in a journal or conference proceedings, nor presented at another conference. Moreover, they must NOT be currently under consideration for publication or presentation elsewhere. Note that a person can be (co)author of NO more than 3 submissions to ECIS 2013 to assure diversity at the conference. Deadline for submissions is 7 December, and no extensions will be allowed.
