The rapid evolution and integration of digital technologies are fundamentally reshaping how businesses operate and how societies function. The theme “Re-imagining Digital Technology for Business, Management, and Society,” as introduced by ECIS 2026, underscores the urgent need to critically reassess the roles that digital innovations play across multiple domains. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, and Robotics are not only enabling unprecedented efficiencies and capabilities in organizations but are also reconfiguring the fabric of societal interactions, governance, and values.
