7th Conference on Information Systems in Latin America (ISLA 2023)
Virtually together, always!
Planet Earth - August 7-11, 2023
Information Systems in Latin America (ISLA 2023) is an ancillary conference that is part of the Americas Conference of Information Systems (AMCIS 2023). It is organized by the Latin American and Caribbean Chapter of the Association for Information Systems.
Past events: ISLA 2014, ISLA 2015, ISLA2016, ISLA2020, ISLA2021 , ISLA2022
Conference goals
The conference aims to discuss Information Systems’ role in society and, more specifically, the ways the discipline has evolved over the years, with special attention to the idiosyncrasies of IS research and practical application in Latin America. Authors are encouraged to submit papers or videos that contribute to the development of IS as a field of study and practice. Particularities of the region should be taken into account whenever they may lead to different approaches or different results to those the field has experienced elsewhere.
ISLA2023 will accept rigorous and high-quality IS/IT/MIS research in and about Latin America in Spanish, Portuguese, or English.
ISLA is a free conference for everyone. Although it is an ancillary conference to AMCIS, one does not need to register to AMCIS to attend ISLA. Register <here>.
