ICIS 2024 - Conference Contribution

4 Nov 2024

We are presentating at the this year‘s International Conference of Information Systems in Bangkok, Thailand.

We are pleased to announce that two papers from our professorship have been accepted for presentation at the prestigious International Conference of Information Systems in Bangkok, Thailand.

The first paper, titled "Survival and Growth of Digital Innovation Units: A Case Study Analysis", authored by Max Schumm, André Hanelt, Anne Ixmeier und Johann Kranz, looks at Digital Innovation Units (DIUs), which are essential for deliver new digital technology-related skills and working procedures to their main organisations. In this context, the paper examines how DIUs can master their continuous struggle for survival and growth. To better understand the evolution of DIUs, the paper dentifies three evolutionary stages in a DIU’s development and three mechanisms driving its evolution, which are synthesized into an evolutionary process model (see figure).

The second paper, authored by Alexander Zieglmeier, Johann Kranz and Tawfiq Alashoor, examines the concept of "AI reciprocity" in commercial AI health services and its impact on users' willingness to share data. The findings reveal that privacy uncertainty, influenced by transparency features, negatively affects data disclosure, while AI reciprocity has a positive association with data sharing. These results provide important insights for future research on privacy and prosocial data use in AI systems.
