Themes & Tracks

Bruce Mau challenges our technological age and asks: “Now that we can do anything, what will we do?”

At ICIS in Paris 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 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.

The conference theme is “Ethics, Design and Consequences of IT”. The conference will be divided into several tracks:
