Future Directions CommitteeRegion 9 Meeting

Roberto de MarcaChair, IEEE Future Directions Comm.2012 IEEE President Elect Candidate

IEEE Future directions Committee Scope

The mission of the IEEE Future Directions Committee is to anticipate and determine the direction of existing, new and emerging technologies, and related issues, and to spearhead their investigation and development by IEEE. The emphasis is on new, emerging technical areas either not adequately covered by existing IEEE Societies/Councils (S/C), or which overlap the fields of interest of the existing S/C's.

Custom Industry Seminars

Format– One-day IEEE conference at client location with 6 topics– In-person attendance and webcast

Process– Client selects initial list of 10-12 topics– Iterative discussion (client and IEEE) to agree on final list– IEEE identifies speakers (who must be IEEE members) for topics

selected– IEEE sends abstracts and speakers’ bios to client for approval– Client and IEEE finalize agenda– Long (4-6 month) process with a few surprises along the way– Customer handles local arrangements, IEEE handles speakers’ logistics – Net surplus returned to s/c’s as a function of their respective society
