ICEEG 2022

The 2022 6th International Conference on E-Commerce, E-Business and E-Government (ICEEG 2022) was originally intended to be held at the University of Plymouth, Plymouth, UK during April 27–29, 2022. However, due to the uncertainty and stricter travel restrictions caused by the global pandemic, the safety and well-being of all conference participants is our priority. After evaluating the current COVID-19 situation, the decision was made to transform the in-person component of ICEEG 2022 into a full virtual conference experience. It's the second time we have had to meet virtually to facilitate as best as possible. We are pleased to see that our researchers involved in related fields remain active and productive in this challenging year.

ICEEG 2022 was organized by the University of Plymouth, technically supported by Xiamen University of Technology, China, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway, and Rangsit University, Thailand. Previous ICEEG series had been successfully held at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China in 2018, INSEEC Business School, Lyon Campus, France in 2019, and online in 2020 and 2021.

We are grateful to all the authors for submissions to this conference and for sharing their research fruits and valuable experiences they've acquired. Hopefully, your experience with ICEEG 2022 will be a fruitful and long lasting one. With your support and participation, the conference will continue its success for a long time.

We'd like to express our genuine gratitude to everyone who has contributed to ICEEG 2022, especially the conference chair, keynote speakers, the program chairs, invited speakers, as well as session chairs, and all the technical committee members.

We also wish that this conference will be an unforgettable and wonderful experience for you. Here we'd like to share with you some great moments in ICEEG 2022.
