🌍 About BIS 2026



BIS (Business Information Systems) is a well-established, internationally recognized conference that brings together leading researchers and business professionals from around the world 🌐.

In 2026, BIS proudly celebrates its 26th edition, continuing a long tradition of excellence in sharing cutting-edge research and practical insights on the development, implementation, application, and enhancement of business information systems πŸ’‘.

Since its inception, BIS has served as a trusted forum for exchanging ideas that bridge scientific innovation and real-world business practice.



πŸš€ From Hype to Impact: Turning AI into Real Business Value



Artificial Intelligence has moved beyond being a futuristic promise to become a core driver of business strategy and innovation πŸ€–πŸ“Š. Yet, while AI adoption has accelerated rapidly, many organizations struggle to convert experimentation into measurable business results.



The BIS 2026 theme, “From Hype to Impact: Turning AI into Real Business Value”, highlights this pivotal transition. Today’s challenge is no longer discovering AI opportunities—but making them work in practice to boost growth, efficiency, and competitiveness πŸ“ˆ.



We are entering the era of execution. True AI impact emerges when technologies are deeply embedded into business processes, decision-making, and products—aligned with clear strategic goals. This transformation requires:





  • rethinking business models,




  • redesigning processes, and




  • fostering a strong data-driven culture πŸ§ πŸ“‚.





Success is no longer measured by the sophistication of algorithms alone, but by their ability to solve real problems, enhance customer experiences, and deliver sustainable value 🌱.



From generative AI and predictive analytics to autonomous systems, AI technologies continue to mature and spread across industries. However, unlocking their full potential demands addressing challenges related to data quality, ethics, organizational readiness, and long-term sustainability—especially as AI investments often outpace immediate returns βš–οΈ.



BIS 2026 invites researchers, practitioners, and innovators to join the conversation and explore how AI can move beyond hype to become a true engine of business impact. Through real-world case studies, interdisciplinary perspectives, and forward-looking research, we aim to shape the future of AI in the digital economy 🌐✨.
