Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected world-wide business and management immensely. Furthermore, challenges and opportunities for information systems research during and after coronavirus have emerged. To better understand the impacts of COVID-19 pandemic in the field of information systems (IS), and also as a part of the 2020 AIS SIG-ISAP Workshop on Information Systems in Asia Pacific (ISAP) being held prior ICIS-2020, we organized a panel to address this important issue with three distinguished information systems researchers. The panelists identified and discussed the challenges and opportunities for information systems research during and after Coronavirus. In addition, constructive suggestions for aspiring young scholars who aim to publish their works in top-tier IS journals have been proposed, which may benefit the IS community in large.
