TRACK DESCRIPTION

Media firms face the central tension between the need to optimize and to 
innovate. Innovation is constantly needed 
as audiences are fragmenting as well as changing their preferences, and demand 
is rapidly declining. Thus, mechanisms 
must be developed to allow a multi-platform exploitation of content so that 
user preferences are fulfilled and returns 
from investments ensured. Information technology plays a key role within this 
context.

Newly emerged forms of news and, more in general, knowledge gathering, 
dissemination and consumption have been 
challenging traditional economic and working models during the past decade. 
These new forms are driven by mass 
creativity, interactive rather than passive consumption of media, erosion of 
industrial control over the means 
of production and the development of highly accessible new communication 
technologies. The implications of these 
emerging modes of practice have enormous potential for constructive growth and 
increased competitiveness within 
our economic system.

Media are therefore an interesting and worthwhile research object for both 
media and information technology 
scholars. Besides strategic management, innovation and technology management 
theories as well as concepts from 
disciplines such as sociology and psychology can be applied in order to better 
understand the impact of social 
media on the development of new business models, and on media user and consumer 
behavior. This track aims 
therefore at merging media management as well as information management and 
systems researchers to stimulate 
discussion around the current status as well as the future development of media 
from a technological, managerial, 
business as well as social point of view.

The proposed track will focus on (but is not limited to) topics such as
-          The role of information technology within the development of the 
media industry
-          The impact of information systems on the economics of the media 
business
-          Network and Lock-in effects on media industry structure and 
competition
-          Information systems and media convergence issues
-          The role of technology acceptance factors for the adoption and 
diffusion of technology driven media products
-          The role of content and information systems for the creation of new 
media business models
-          The interplay between technology and content, and their impact on 
media consumer choices
-          Information technology and the emergence of new media professions
-          The link between information systems and the development of data 
journalism
-          The impact of information systems on journalistic work and processes
-          Information technology, audience measurement and audience 
participation
-          Information technology and social media management


TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS

The proposed track on media management aims at attracting the full spectrum of 
submissions:
-          Completed papers that represent a mature, theory-driven and 
empirically validated research
-          Research-in-progress papers that explore emerging research areas and 
would profit from discussion and feedback at ECIS
-          Practical examples of technology sustained new media business models 
and managerial systems

PAPER SUBMISSIONS
Research papers and research-in-progress papers are limited to 12 and 7 pages 
in length respectively, 
practical examples to 14 pages. All submissions must use the Word or the LaTeX
