The 17th International Baltic Conference on Digital Business and Intelligent Systems welcomes cutting-edge research that advances the foundations and future of digital business, intelligent systems, and data-driven innovation. As organisations navigate accelerating digital transformation—spanning conceptual modelling, business process optimisation, intelligent platforms, trustworthy and human-centred computing, data science, simulation, semantic technologies, and emerging paradigms such as digital twins, blockchain, CPS, and quantum computing—the conference provides a vibrant forum for sharing breakthroughs, best practices, and applied insights. We invite contributions that deepen scientific understanding, demonstrate impactful real-world applications, or critically examine the ethical, organisational, and socio-technical dimensions of digitalisation.

Join us in shaping the next generation of digital solutions powering business, society, and sustainable innovation.
