The Second ISSS took place at the University of Leipzig, Germany, at September 30, 2010. The University of Leipzig is the second oldest University in Germany and celebrated its 600th anniversary in 2009. 

It has been five years that the first contributions on Services Science have spurred numerous research activities in academia and practice. This new domain is believed to have a similar impact as computer science had decades earlier. A large potential is attributed to linking the research on the design and management of economic and technological services which have evolved separately. However, the unique characteristics, principles, instruments and benefits of Services Science are still subject to further research. For example, this includes the advantages compared to existing approaches, such as engineering of hybrid products, (business) process management, or distributed information architectures.

ISSS2010 was organized by the Information Systems Institute and the Institute of Applied Informatics (InfAI) which is a spin-off of the Information Systems Institute and the Department of Computer Science at the University of Leipzig, Germany.
