Welcome from the 2009 ICIS Program Chairs
This year, the International Conference on Information Systems celebrates 30 successful years of bringing together information systems researchers to discuss—at times vociferously—the nature and future of our field. This year’s conference theme, “Doing IT Research That Matters,” is intended to provide a premise for discussion around the need for information systems research to be timely, relevant and farreaching in its impacts on individuals, groups, organizations and society.
