The symposium raised awareness of the Accounting Information Systems group at Monash and provided us with an opportunity to promote and enhance the strength of our discipline. As co-chair Carla would like to thank Adrian D’Souza for his support, which enabled the event to run very smoothly. It was appreciated by all who attended.
