Modern society is a networked society permeated by information technology (IT), which defines ECIS 2015's Conference Theme. Networks - perceived as a group of organisations and people who exchange information, contacts, and experience for professional or social purposes - leave their mark on almost every area of our society and promise various advantages to those involved. From a technical perspective, more information can be communicated to more recipients than ever before. The extensive use of Information Systems has enabled the co-evolution of advanced quantitative and qualitative forms of networking.

ECIS 2015 should be a meeting place for European and non-European IS researchers from various cultures and countries, and should reflect specific and innovative IS research dealing with the overarching networked society.
