Electronic Markets (EM) is a leading academic journal that offers a forum for research on all forms of networked business. EM recognizes the transformational role of information and communication technology (IT) in changing the interaction between organizations and customers| which is present in social networks| electronic commerce| supply chain management| or customer relationship management. Electronic markets| in particular| refer to forms of networked business where multiple suppliers and customers interact for economic purposes within one or among multiple tiers in economic value chains. As a broad concept| there are many forms of electronic markets: In a narrow sense| electronic markets are mainly conceived as allocation platforms with dynamic price discovery mechanisms involving atomistic relationships. Popular examples originate from the financial (e.g.| CBOT| XETRA) and energy markets (e.g.| EEX| ICE). In a broader sense| price discovery is not critical for Electronic Markets. These solutions emphasize longer-term relationships and processes for enabling business transactions (e.g.| electronic procurement solutions) and/or knowledge management (e.g.| product development| problem and incident management). EM covers diverse aspects of networked business and welcomes research from a technological| organizational| societal| and/or political perspective. Since EM is a methodologically pluralistic journal| quantitative and qualitative research methods are both welcome as long as the studies are methodologically sound. Conceptual and theory-development papers| empirical hypothesis testing| and case-based studies are all welcome. More information on EM's scope as well as some examples are provided in Editorial 24/3.Officially cited as: Electron Markets
