Minitrack:  Social Media and e-Business Transformation
Track: Collaboration Systems and Technologies


Social media are online platforms that facilitate global collaboration and sharing among users. New social media applications in e-business and e-commerce appear everyday and results in enormous shocks to the ecosystem of individuals and businesses. Consumers can easily obtain information from a vast, geographically dispersed group of people in social platforms. Meanwhile, these social platforms give retailers a wealth of options for reaching potential customers, communication and collaboration, and creating values to customers. Furthermore, social media are increasingly being used in organizations to improve relationships among employees and nurture collaboration and the sharing culture.
The aim of this minitrack is to provide a forum for the exchange of innovative research ideas and dissemination of research results related to social media in e-business environments. It also aims to raise awareness in terms of the latest developments in social media, and address the business and techno-social challenges of using social media.
