=========================================
The ICIS 2008 Conference Committee and the Association for Information
Systems are pleased to invite scholars to participate in the Twenty-Ninth
annual International Conference on Information Systems
(ICIS 2008) to be held in Paris, France, December 14-17, 2008.

The ICIS 2008 Program Committee invites submissions across 18 tracks,
including our Theme track of "Ethics, Design and Consequences."  At ICIS
2008, we will confront the ways in which we are creating informational
environments with IT, and the consequences they have for organizations and
for society. We will ask: are we really doing what we want, what we are
worthy of, and what do we desire for society? Are we creating betterment
for human beings? Our intention is to challenge global academic and
industrial leaders to confront the ethical basis, the design processes and
the consequences of IT as we create a worldwide ubiquitous presence of
information and communication technologies.

Please note the following:

1. The conference website at www.icis2008.org contains the track
descriptions, deadlines, and submission guidelines.

2. The deadline for submissions is May 6th (midnight, Pacific Standard
Time = UCT - 8). This is a firm deadline and no extensions will be
allowed.

3. All submissions must be made through the online submission system
http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/icis2008.  Authors need to create an
account on the submission system (see tab in the upper right corner)
before they can upload their papers. A submission can be made to only one
Track and the posted submission guidelines, at
http://www.unice.fr/icis2008/step1/submissions.html, must be followed.

4.  Acceptance/rejection decisions will be made on July 31, 2008.

We look forward to seeing you in Paris for ICIS 2008!

Your ICIS 2008 Program Co-Chairs,
