Information systems (IS) play a pervasive role in creating value for organizations, supporting managerial decisions, and transforming economic exchange. In recent times, they enable the creation and delivery of new products, services, and business concepts. The transformative power of IS creates new opportunities and challenges.
We study theoretical and empirical works that leverage economic theories and methodologies, and aim to address important and interesting questions about the value that IS create, and their impacts. Our research interests include but are not limited to the following:
– Platform strategy and competition
– Online to Offline (O2O) services and sharing economy
– Crowdfunding and open innovation
