AUEB's Department of Management Science and Technology (DMST) organizes the 4th Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems (MCIS '09) from

September 25th to 27th, 2009. The MCIS conference series is held under the auspices of the Association of Information Systems (AIS).

The Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems (MCIS) aims to encourage and inspire innovative and informative IS research that is relevant to the social, economic and cultural particularities of the Mediterranean region, raise the visibility

of IS-related research practice, education and policy carried out in the Mediterranean region, and bring together researchers, educators, policy makers and practitioners originating from, or working in the region, thus engaging junior and more experienced

members of the Mediterranean IS community in a creative dialogue.

Aspiring to set up an inclusive, high quality IS conference with solid academic and practitioner foundations, the MCIS 2009 organization invites papers, case studies, panels and workshop proposals in a number of areas that are relevant to IS Research,

Education, Policy and Practice in the Mediterranean Region.
