We invite researchers and practitioners to submit unpublished research papers as ‘Completed Research Papers’ or ‘Research-in-Progress’ papers to WI2026. Research contributions in German and English are welcome – accepted contributions may also be presented in German or English. The Track 'Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation in Industry and Production (Industry Track)' explicitly invites submissions from practitioners. Submissions in cooperation with companies, which are also named as co-authors, are welcome. For each track, the respective track chairs have assembled an international program committee that reviews each submission using a double-blind review process. Failure to meet formal criteria will result in rejection without review (desk reject).
Completed Research Papers present scientific results from the field of business informatics and related disciplines. The results make a significant contribution to the current state of research. Completed research papers will be included in the conference program as presentations and presented in various formats.

Research-in-Progress Papers present innovative ideas or partial results. Even if not yet fully implemented or investigated, they should contribute to the current state of research. Accepted contributions can also be presented as posters upon request.

Contributions in German: With the final version, an abstract in English must also be submitted for the contribution. Upon consultation, the contributions will be translated using AI-based software and sent to the authors. Authors can correct this translation and choose whether the original or translated version should be published in the conference proceedings. The translated version will be made available to international conference participants during the conference. By submitting a contribution in German, authors agree to translation by AI-based software.
