The International Information Management Association was founded in 1989, with the mission of providing a unique blend of high-quality academic research and social interaction. The 31th annual meeting aims to promote the dynamic exchange of ideas among researchers, educators, developers and practitioners who share their research and disseminate innovations in education, business, and government. This conference is devoted to examining and sharing how business analytics and technology innovations can help us succeed in a world where information is increasingly taking center stage.
