About

Denis Dennehy is a Professor of Information Systems & Sustainability at the School of Management, Swansea University. He is currently School Research Lead, and Director of the Digital Futures for Sustainable Business & Society research group. His research primarily focuses on the mediating role of information systems and analytics, and its implications for teams, organisations, and society. His research is informed through engagement with organisations such as the Kepak Group, Intel, Dell Technologies, as well as several SMEs and NGOs. These projects have been funded by UKRI, MASI, Erasmus+, Science Foundation Ireland, Irish Aid, and Enterprise Ireland.

This research has been published in premier IS conferences (ICIS, ECIS) and journals including Information & Management, Information Systems Frontiers, Journal of Business Research, Business Strategy and the Environment, International Journal of Production Research, International Journal of Operations & Production Management, European Journal of Operational Research, and IEEE.

He is co-editor-in-chief of Communications of the Association for Information Systems, and senior editor of Information Technology and People. He has chaired international conferences (e.g., IEEE ISTAS23, IFIP | I3E2021) and edited special issues related to his field. In 2024 he won the Outstanding Research Supervision Award at Swansea University, and is a recipient of the AIS Sandra Slaughter Service Award for 2023, an international award that recognises longstanding members who have provided leadership within the Association for Information Systems.

Previously he worked at University of Galway as a funded investigator at the Lero | Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre and as director of the MSc (Business Analytics) programme that received the inaugural Dean's Award for Inclusive Teaching (Team Award) in 2019 and he successfully got the programme ranked by QS rankings in 2020 and 2021.
