Driving Engineering Forward
From our technology roadmaps to industry partnerships, IEEE brings experts together to develop the innovations of tomorrow.
Since IEEE’s founding over 140 years ago, IEEE has fostered collaboration among technologists. Today, our over 2,000 annual conferences allow experts across technical fields of interest to connect and collaborate. IEEE roadmaps on next-generation technologies guide the work of STEM professionals worldwide. Industry partnerships help harness our collective expertise. The through line of our work as we drive engineering forward is our mission to advance technology for the benefit of humanity.
IEEE Future Directions Conferences
The Second IEEE Conference on Telepresence will cover all aspects of telepresence systems and applications, including telerobotics, haptics, and more.
IEEE Roadmaps Drive Technology Forward
As a leader in developing technology roadmaps, we help guide the work of scientists, engineers, and academics who are innovating future technologies. Explore some of our current and developing roadmaps, and learn how to get involved.
Focused on achieving Net Zero, the Future of Power & Energy Roadmap provides global strategic goals for the power and energy industry through 2035.
Control for Societal-Scale Challenges: Roadmap 2030 explores how control systems can evolve to meet global challenges like climate change, health care, and more in the years to come.
The International Roadmap for Devices and Systems (IRDS™), an IEEE-led global effort, provides a 15-year outlook on trends, challenges, and innovations in the development of electronic devices and systems.
In the era of IoT and intelligent automobiles, the Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap (HIR) identifies key challenges and opportunities to support innovation in the global electronics industry in the decades ahead.
Roadmap Spotlight: Finding Control Theory Solutions for Climate Change, Health Care, and Other Global Challenges
Analytics- and decision-making-powered control systems exist in industry sectors from engineering and financial services to entertainment and sports. How can they evolve to meet the global societal challenges of today and the years to come? In this video, IEEE Senior Member Steven Brunton, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Washington, provides a high-level overview of this essential IEEE roadmap, Control for Societal-Scale Challenges: Roadmap 2030.
We’re Focused on the Future
At IEEE, we help experts across disciplines chart a path to the future. Our IEEE Future Directions Initiatives—in areas including digital privacy, sustainability technologies, and low-earth-orbit satellites and systems—create a forum to advance new technologies. Discover our current focus areas, and learn how to get involved.
Our new platform, an IEEE Future Directions initiative, offers an affordable way to experiment with 5G enhancements or 6G functions, paving the way for faster and smoother real world deployments.
Industry Connections That Foster Innovation
Collaboration and strategic partnerships are key to driving technology forward. Here are just some of the ways IEEE brings professionals together.
IEEE partners with companies around the world to support business growth, upskill employees, and shape the future of industry.
IEEE SA Industry Connections (IC) fosters collaboration among organizations to help incubate new standards.
Our technical communities bring together professionals from around the world to connect on emerging topic areas such as Blockchain, Big Data, Future Networks, and more.
“IEEE members provide relief in the aftermath of natural disasters. In underdeveloped locales, they help people reap the benefits of technology that they may not otherwise be able to access. They spend their professional lives developing the products that move economies forward. At night, on weekends, and even on vacation, they help develop policies and standards to ensure that the way technology is deployed is interoperable, ethical, and sustainable.”
