The first PACIS conference took place in 1995 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The 1993 and 1995 conferences carried the title of Pan Pacific Conference on Information Systems. In 1997 the name was changed to the Pacific Asia Conference on Information Systems. From 1993 it was a biannual event until 2000. Since 2000, PACIS has been held annually in different cities throughout the Asia Pacific, generally within East Asia and Australasia. The conference now attracts 150 to 200 registered delegates every year with around 150 refereed papers presented.
The PACIS logo consists of a globe positioned on a map of the Asia Pacific.
