*** Call for Nominations ***
Universities are invited to nominate candidates for the consortium. 
Eligible candidates are Ph.D. students in Information Systems (IS), who 
have developed a plan for pursuing their dissertation, and would benefit 
from constructive feedback from senior faculty in the field. The 
consortium aims to provide doctoral students with an opportunity to 
share their research ideas and network with peers and experienced 
scholars serving as faculty advisors. Participating students will 
receive high quality feedback from faculty advisors, who are eminent 
researchers in the field, associated with leading institutions around 
the globe, serving in senior editorial positions in the field’s top 
journals. This consortium will be a significant event for emerging IS 
researchers in the Asia Pacific region.

*** Nomination Eligibility ***
•    Ph.D. students who are currently working on a doctoral dissertation 
in Information Systems, and whose research has progressed to the point 
where a clear plan of investigation has been laid out, but there is 
sufficient scope for changes to this plan based on feedback from the 
consortium.
•    The ideal consortium candidate should have chosen a theoretical 
approach and initiated planning or implementation of empirical work, but 
should have at least six months of work remaining at the time of the 
consortium.
•    The nominated candidates must be sufficiently proficient in English 
to participate in the consortium, since the language of the consortium 
will be English.
•    While priority will be given to students from institutions in the 
Asia-Pacific region (AIS Region 3), applicants from other AIS regions 
will be considered subject to spare seats.
