The AIS Industry Advisory Board

The AIS Industry Advisory Board (IAB) was established in early 2023 with the aim to establish a forum for a structured, regular conversation with globally leading IS professionals. The mission of the IAB is to ensure the Association for Information Systems is producing (research) and distributing (education, technology transfer) IS knowledge to the benefit of our global, regional and local economies and societies.
