[AISWorld] WITS 2022 1st CFP

[Zheng, Zhiqiang]

Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite submissions for the 32nd Workshop on Information Technology and Systems (WITS 2022) to be hosted in Copenhagen, Denmark from December 13-15 primarily in person but with a hybrid mode option to allow for remote participation. The purpose of the workshop is to provide a forum for dialogue and interaction among scholars who are conducting research on cutting-edge issues of information technologies and systems.
The theme of WITS 2022 is "Embracing Digital Asset Disruption in the Digital Economy". A historical migration, known as the metaverse, is coming whereby the physical and virtual worlds will be unified. Facilitated by information technology, value will be allowed to flow freely within the metaverse through tokenization of tangible and intangible assets. Digital currencies, cryptos, and Non-Fungible Token (NFTs) will fuel the growth of the digital economy by giving birth to a novel class of digital assets that offer seamless on-ramp and off-ramp bridges to conventional asset classes. To thrive in the digital economy, there is a fundamental need for organizations to rethink contemporary business paradigms, especially in terms of how one could create, own, protect, and transact digital assets in this space. The conference theme for this year's workshop is deliberately provocative to inspire information systems researchers to explore and design pioneering technological solutions for embracing digital asset disruption. This theme is inclusive and engages research across a broad range of topics.
