MIS Quarterly

Business intelligence and analytics (BI&amp;A) has emerged as an important area of study for both practitioners and researchers, reflecting the magnitude and impact of data-related problems to be solved in contemporary business organizations. This introduction to the MIS Quarterly Special Issue on Business Intelligence Research first provides a framework that identifies the evolution, applications, and emerging research areas of BI&amp;A. BI&amp;A 1.0, BI&amp;A 2.0, and BI&amp;A 3.0 are defined and described in terms of their key characteristics and capabilities. Current research in BI&amp;A is analyzed and challenges and opportunities associated with BI&amp;A research and education are identified. We also report a bibliometric study of critical BI&amp;A publications, researchers, and research topics based on more than a decade of related academic and industry publications. Finally, the six articles that comprise this special issue are introduced and characterized in terms of the proposed BI&amp;A research framework.
