Blockchain Research eWorkshop



Title: Blockchain: Beyond the Horizon



Call for Abstracts: Deadline May 10th, 2020





Description of eWorkshop


Building on the success of two previous ECIS workshops in Portsmouth, UK, in 2018 and in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2019, the aim of this virtual eWorkshop is to advance the theoretical and practical discussions on Blockchain and to provide substantial feedback to authors with an interactive format. This eWorkshop is open to both early-stage and advanced blockchain research projects and offers networking opportunities.



The goal of the eWorkshop is twofold: (1) giving feedback to the authors and helping them to develop their ideas, and (2) providing virtual networking and collaboration opportunities.



Abstract Submission Requirements/Limits


This virtual eWorkshop is open to academic, public sector, governmental and industry participants. eWorkshop participants are selected based on extended abstracts. These abstracts can either be ideas or suggestions for academic papers or research collaborations or insights from proposed or current industry blockchain projects. Either way, they should be early stage, but show some potential.


In the abstract the authors should provide a concrete idea on the topic they are interested in. The extended abstracts should not exceed two (2) pages. The submitted abstracts should outline a research question, the research method being used and the expected findings. There are no restrictions pertaining to the academic approach. Conceptual abstracts are fine, as are empirical (theory building and testing) and design science papers.



The eWorkshop will be restricted to 10 presenters. Non-presenters are also welcome to attend. Please contact the facilitating team to register for the free eWorkshop.


All accepted authors will be expected to read all accepted papers prior to the eWorkshop. Initially, the authors will briefly present an overview of their research. They will then receive constructive feedback on how they can advance their own blockchain research or projects.
