The Association for Information Systems (AIS) takes great pleasure in welcoming the May 2023 cohort of AIS Distinguished Members consisting of 49 AIS Distinguished Members and 24 AIS Distinguished Members-Cum Laude. This cohort represents the largest group to have earned the distinction since the program's inception in 2019.
The AIS Distinguished Member program stands as a testament to the association's commitment to acknowledging and honoring members who have rendered exceptional contributions to the association and the field of information systems. To attain this distinguished recognition, applicants must meet criteria encompassing the following dimensions:
