IEEE World Technology Summit 2024

About the IEEE World Technology Summit

At the IEEE World Technology Summit (WTS), companies and researchers come together to solve the technical challenges involved in creating the latest competitive products and services. It’s the place for pre-product examinations of key issues and their possible solutions.

The primary sponsor for WTS is the Industry Engagement Committee of the IEEE, which launched this initiative so that industry could describe complex technology issues involved in creating products and engage researchers in finding ways to respond to those issues.

We expect the conference to expand over time, addressing more topics of interest from the broad areas of the IEEE to our industry sponsors.

All in IEEE can engage in this program, and those outside IEEE are welcome as well.

We foresee four main groups of attendees.

• Executives: Presenting technical challenges in a panel and learning from requested research summaries.
• Engineers and Planners: Understanding the research topics for possible future product considerations and taking training classes in desired topic areas to be applied to product developments.
• Other Members of the Product Development, Marketing, and Support Communities: Investing in overview training to become more effective in dealing with customers as products using new technologies emerge.
• Research Community: Listening and responding to current challenges from Industry in their area of expertise. Offering one’s knowledge to industry in a forum where industry is actively listening.
