Dominik Gutt

Hello and thanks for visiting my website! I am the Professor for Business Information Systems at RWTH Aachen University where I hold the chair of Business Information Systems and Digital Transformation since October 2025. Previously, I worked at the Rotterdam School of Management at Erasmus University Rotterdam from September 2019 to September 2025 as an Assistant and Associate Professor.  I obtained my PhD from Paderborn University in 2019.

I am doing research on topics related to the Economics of Information Systems. My main research interests lie in user-generated content (e.g., electronic word-of-mouth, peer-to-peer video streams), web3 (NFTs and DAOs), and the effects of AI usage (chatbots, GAI).  My work has been accepted at peer-reviewed journals including Information Systems Research and MIS Quarterly and presented at leading Information Systems and Economics conferences including the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) Summer Institute, the Workshop on Information Systems and Economics (WISE), the Conference on Information Systems and Technology (CIST), and Statistical Challenges in E-Commerce Research (SCECR), and  the International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS). 

My research has been recognized with several awards (e.g.,  AIS Early Career Award, TARGION Research Award) and featured in popular national news outlets (TV, radio, news websites) as well as in research-focused and general interest podcasts.  I am an active member of the academic community, particularly in Information Systems, where I serve on the Editorial Review Board of ISR (starting 2025) and as an AE for Business & Information Systems Engineering. I also received the Reviewer of the Year 2023 Award from MIS Quarterly. Regarding teaching, I am mainly teaching research methods for IS students (in particular, econometrics), web scraping, and economics of digital markets.
