# Companies in information systems research, 2023–2025

Companies whose researchers publish in the 19 tracked information systems journals, ranked by their papers in each year from 2023 to 2025, and how much of the research has corporate authors. A paper counts as corporate when at least one of its authors is affiliated with an institution that OpenAlex classifies as a company; it counts once for each company among its authors' affiliations. Universities are the institutions OpenAlex classifies as education.
