<header class="entry-header"> <h1 class="entry-title h1">General Conferences Information</h1></header> <div class="entry-content herald-entry-content"> <p style="text-align: justify;">The IEEE Technology Management Council (TMC) sponsors several conferences that bring together engineering and management professionals and academics from around the world for the benefit of IEEE members. They include those for which the Council is a financial sponsor or a technical co-sponsor. These conferences create a forum for the exchange of ideas, experience, theories, and knowledge between all those involved in engineering management and economic development of technologically-focused communities: engineers, managers, business and management consultants, academics and researchers, and community business leaders. In addition, they provide reduced IEEE member rates and contribute conference papers into the IEEE Xplore platform.<br /> The IEEE Technology Management Council is the heir to the IEEE Engineering Management Society’s legacy of twenty years of presenting the flagship IEEE International Engineering Management Conference (IEMC) – a world renowned conference with technical and professional activities spanning the entire range of hot topics in engineering and technology management.<br /> Beginning in 2011 the TMC flagship conference will bear the ITMC brand (e.g., IEEE 2011 International Technology Management Conference: ITMC2011) for a full annual conference normally two and a half days in length typically beginning with pre-conference tutorials and an opening reception on a Sunday and ending at noon on Wednesday. The TMC brand (e.g., IEEE Technology Management Conference-China 2009: TMC-China 2009) will be further developed as either a major track in another conference or a stand alone conference, typically of less than two and a half days duration.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"> We are organizing a Council-level organizing committee for our annual ITMC conferences for the future, and we are always looking for appropriate conference venues and organizing committees for our smaller conferences.
