This is the 4th Congress of a series started in 2009 as BI Congress that brings together academics, practice and students in the business intelligence, analytics and big data space.

** BA Congress: Exploring the Analytics Frontier **

The 2015 pre-ICIS SIGDSA event will feature the joint Association for Information Systems SIG Decision Support and Analytics (SIGDSA) and Teradata University Network (TUN) Business Analytics Congress (https://sites.google.com/a/uncg.edu/bac2015/).

The 2015 BA Congress will bring together academic professionals and industry representatives who share a common passion for research and education innovation in the field of analytics. In the spirit of open innovation - learn from, contribute your knowledge to, and brainstorm with the key industry and academic movers and shakers!

We have begun accepting submissions for research and teaching submissions. See website for more information. All accepted research and teaching submissions will be published in the Business Analytics Congress Proceedings.

The theme of this year's BA Congress is "Exploring the Analytics Frontier." Plan to be a part of this unique event. Mark your calendars for the afternoon of Saturday December 12 for the opening sessions of the BA Congress, the social event on the evening of Saturday December 12 and a full day of presentations, keynotes and panels on Sunday December 13.
