We welcome submissions for the 22nd International Conference on Perspectives in Business Informatics Research (BIR 2023) to be hosted by the University of Camerino, Italy. BIR 2023 continues the tradition of annual events focused on opening perspectives and stimulating new roadmaps for Business Informatics, Business Information Systems and Information Systems Engineering, considering both fundamental research and key application areas. From its very inception the BIR conference focused on opening perspectives and stimulating new roadmaps for Business Informatics, considering fundamental and applied research in both technologies (e.g., Artificial Intelligence, data science, blockchain) and key applications areas (e.g., Industry 4.0, smart cities, e-government, FinTech ...) Current trends in business informatics research include the use of Big Data, Open Data, data spaces and analytics, the development of AI and machine
learning technologies, the application of cloud computing, and the exploration of blockchain technology. Additionally, research is being conducted into the use of virtual reality, augmented reality, and the Internet of Things (IoT) in business informatics. As these technologies become more prevalent, their integration into business operations will become increasingly important.

BIR 2023 provides a rich environment for exchanging research findings and ideas
among scientists, practitioners, and doctoral students.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

BIR 2023 welcomes original unpublished contributions that have not been reviewed elsewhere. All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. As in tradition of the BIR conference all accepted papers will be published in the Springer LNBIP series.

The following paper categories are welcome:
- Research papers describing original research contributions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual).
- Exploratory papers introducing new ideas and directions for research by analyzing the current state of the art, identifying the gaps that need to be addressed, and introducing an approach as a means to bridge them.
- Practice papers discussing problems or challenges that organizations (private or public) face, relate them to the wider domain and provide useful insights to practitioners from similar organizations and contexts.

Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form (this will be made available to authors of accepted papers). The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made.

All submissions must be unpublished and not be under review elsewhere. Page limit for all papers is 15 pages. A preliminary abstract submission is expected one week before the paper submission deadline. Inclusion in the proceedings volume is conditioned by having at least one author registration per paper and having the paper presented during the conference.

Initial submissions should be made in PDF format using the EasyChair submission
page: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=bir20230

BIR proceedings are indexed in Scopus, WoS, and DBLP

A special issue with selected papers from the conference on a renowned IS
journal is under negotiation

WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

The BIR conference is one of the top European conferences in the field of business information systems with a stable research community participating in the annual event.
Along with the main conference, BIR traditionally attracts co-located workshops. Many of them are recurring yearly events, but we welcome proposals for additional workshops. The workshops will take place on September 15th, 2023 and can be half-day or full-day events.
BIR 2023 workshops and events may address all aspects of business information systems. The workshop proposals will be evaluated on the basis of scientific/technical interest, the clarity of the proposal, the innovativeness of the topic, and the relevance for the field of Business Information Systems.
Proceedings of BIR 2023 workshops are planned to be collected in a common volume of the CEUR-WS proceedings series (indexed by Scopus and DBLP). Workshop chairs will be invited to be co-editors of the proceedings volume.

Extended versions of the best workshop papers will be invited to be published in the journal Complex Systems Informatics and Modeling Quarterly (https://csimq-journals.rtu.lv/)
