The 28th International Conference on Business Informatics (CBI 2026) will be held in Enschede, The Netherlands, co-located with the 30th International Conference on Enterprise Design, Operations, and Computing (EDOC 2026).

The CBI conference series encourages a broad understanding of Business Informatics research, and intends to further its many different facets, theoretical foundations and experiential body of knowledge. In doing so, the CBI series has proven to be a fertile ground for research with high impact. It constitutes a hub for multidisciplinary research with contributions from Management Science, Organization Science, Economics, Information Systems, Computer Science, and Artificial Intelligence.

Accordingly, the CBI series of conferences aims to bring together researchers from different fields and disciplines to stimulate discussion, synergy and collaboration. To that end, the CBI conferences use a format that enables in depth discussions among researchers during the conference.

The benefits of such a cross-disciplinary conception are contrasted by a challenge: Authors who submit a paper take the opportunity to be assessed by standards that are complementary to those they are used to in their own research communities. The conference organization accounts for this challenge by involving renowned program committee members from different fields and disciplines.
