[Haluk Demirkan]

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
First of all happy holidays and Thanksgiving. I know it is little late in the process, but we are able to receive final commitments and to announce the 3rd Student Best Paper Award Program for HICSS 2019. If you have a paper (or know someone who has a paper) that is being accepted for a presentation for HICSS 52 (HICSS 2019) that includes a student and an industry partner, please nominate this paper by spending only 5 minutes of your time. We received matching funds from multiple organizations, and our $ award may help out students’ travel expenses.
For more information, please review http://hicss.hawaii.edu/program-hicss52/issip-ibm-cba-student-paper-awards/
Best regards
Haluk
