The academic discipline of information systems is the newest field within the broad field of management or economic sciences. This field developed almost from its very beginnings as an international community of scholars. Niels Bjørn-Andersen has played vital roles in nurturing the international discipline of information systems. I count him on the short list of the 25 most important founders of the field. It is appropriate to honour his contributions on this occasion.
I have been fortunate to have been a part of many of the developments that helped the formation of an international community of information systems scholars. Niels participated in most of these developments. I will focus on some important events where I observed Niels personally or was aware of his activities. A list of some important events will position Niel’s work within the context of events in information systems in organizations.
