International Microwave Symposium

Out of concern for the health and safety of all participants amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the IEEE MTT-S IMS2020 and Microwave Week which was scheduled or 21-26 June 2020 in Los Angeles, CA, USA, is transitioning to a virtual event.

The International Microwave Symposium and Microwave Week (IMS, RFIC and ARFTG) 2020 organizers have made this difficult decision, after careful consultation and review with government authorities, partners, and venues. 

The timeframe for the virtual event will be August 2020.

The program will contain the following activities and will feature both pre-recorded and live events:

1.   IMS, RFIC and ARFTG Technical Sessions

2.   IMS, RFIC and ARFTG Plenary Sessions

3.   Technical Lectures

4.   5G Summit

5.   Panel Sessions

6.   Three Minute Thesis

7.   MicroApps

8.   Industry Workshops

9.   Virtual Exhibition

We recognize there are many unanswered questions regarding the roll-out of the virtual event. Please be assured we are working as quickly as possible to finalize the planning. We are actively working to transition the in-person conference to a virtual format. We will continue to share updates, including what to expect as an attendee, exhibitor, or sponsor on the event website (ims-ieee.org, rfic-ieee.org and arftg.org) in the coming weeks.
