PACIS 2023 is unique in that the Pacific-Asia region¹ is making significant, yet varying degree of, transition from the pandemic-response economy. At the same time, the region is seeing dynamic and rapid digitalization effort at societal, community, organizational, and even individual levels. We are witnessing a world where digital technologies have fueled economic and societal changes that are much quicker, more erratic, and less anticipated. At such an important juncture, PACIS 2023 puts further the conference theme of “Navigating Digital Turbulence and Seizing New Possibilities”. The twenty tracks capture this conference theme in 360-degree perspective.

We invite you to join us from July 8-12th, 2023, in Nanchang for an in-person discussion on how information systems research can help us leverage opportunities for innovation in the digital era.
