<p class="MsoNormal">I am pleased to advise that the website for ICIS 2014 to be held in Auckland, New Zealand from December 14-17 is now live. The website is at
<a href="http://icis2014.aisnet.org/">http://icis2014.aisnet.org/</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Of course, the website will continue to be updated as we get closer to the event, but hopefully you will find some useful info there already about the dates of the conference and tourist information etc. Remember it will be the start of
 summer in Auckland in December 2014, hence you might want to start planning your pre or post-ICIS holiday now.
