Thank you for a successful Life Members Conference

The 2024 IEEE Life Members Conference served as a platform for fostering collaboration, innovation, and knowledge exchange. Sponsoring entities demonstrated support for an experience that IEEE members, of all membership grades, will talk about for years ahead. The Evolution conference theme provided an excellent opportunity for the conference attendees to develop a deeper understanding of the sponsoring organization’s products and services.

“IEEE Life Members are an underutilized resource in the IEEE. The Life Members Conference showed how Life Members can continue to Contribute to IEEE’s mission and stay engaged with the latest technical developments.”

Tom Coughlin, President, IEEE

“The Conference Organizing Committee did a remarkable job. They identified the key areas of interest provided by our members and recruited speakers who shared their insights and experiences, playing a pivotal role in making the conference a resounding success. Importantly, the conference provided Life Members and attendees representing all IEEE member grades to expand their skills and value to other members, mentees, and to the industry.”
