Message from IISE's CEO ...

Aug. 6, 2020

Dear IISE Members & Guests:

It's official: We're going all-out virtual for your favorite ISE event of the year! Yes, the popular IISE Annual Conference & Expo Nov. 1-3 is now going to a virtual-only format to better serve you - our attendees, speakers, exhibitors and sponsors. 

Your IISE leadership team promised to monitor the situation with your safety and health the top priority. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues its widespread impact, possibly well into the fall, the decision to go virtual only for the Annual Conference is based on this promise. 

Your fellow ISEs on the Annual Conference Committee and staff are working diligently to bring you a robust, exciting virtual educational program that you can enjoy from the comfort and safety of your home or workplace. So, show up online with thousands of your peers worldwide! Get ready to be re-energized Nov. 1-3 with top-notch speakers, critical discussions and networking opportunities that will help you connect, advance and stay relevant in your field.

Go ahead and register now at www.iise.org/Annual/Register. Let's celebrate the premier industrial and systems engineering event online together and make this Conference one of the biggest ever. We appreciate your support and participation. Our conferences are a major revenue source and your attendance is critical to the Institute's continued strength and ability to serve you and the profession at large. 

Stay tuned to the Annual Conference site www.iise.org/Annual for current information and updates, and open your IISE emails to stay in the know.

Thank you for your dedication to IISE and the profession. See you online for the Annual VIRTUAL Conference & Expo Nov. 1-3. In the meantime, stay safe. 

Don Greene IISE CEO
