Bocconi University Campus
The 34th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS 2026) will be hosted at Bocconi University in Milan, a premier institution renowned for excellence in business and economics education.
The conference will take place on Bocconi’s state-of-the-art urban campus, which seamlessly combines modern architecture, green spaces, and innovative learning environments. The iconic campus, including the recently inaugurated SDA Bocconi School of Management complex, offers world-class facilities such as high-tech auditoriums, versatile meeting spaces, and collaborative areas designed to inspire academic exchange and creativity.
SDA Bocconi School of Management
SDA Bocconi School of Management, consistently ranked among the top business schools worldwide by the Financial Times, enhances the conference’s prestige with its strong influence in executive education and management research.
The campus is more than just a physical space—it is a vibrant intellectual hub where scholars, professionals, and students converge to explore and shape the future of business, management, and digital technology.
Milan‘s dynamic environment, paired with Bocconi’s tradition of academic rigor and innovation, ensures an ideal setting for engaging with the latest research and emerging ideas in the field of information systems.
Doctoral Consortium
The doctoral consortium will take place at Villa Gallarati Scotti Meeting Center, a beautifully restored 18th-century villa situated in the vicinity of Milan. This historic venue offers an inspiring and serene setting for scholarly exchange and collaboration.
The headquarters of the SDA Bocconi School of Management, designed by the architectural firm Sanaa, is an excellent example of environmental sustainability. This green building, located in the heart of the city, features organic shapes and a double-layered envelope made of glass, aluminum, and metal mesh.
Its undulating design and transparency create a continuous dialogue between the interior and exterior spaces.
