IEEE Canada Conferences
IEEE Canada has three annual conferences, a biennial symposium, and an annual leadership summit. The Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (CCECE), the Canadian Electrical Power and Energy Conference (EPEC) and the International Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics (ANTEM) (Biennial Symposium and organized by IEEE Canada first time in 2019) are normally held in each of the three areas on a rotating basis. Since 2014, IEEE Canada has also offered the International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC), this initiative further joined hands with IEEE Region 8 and 9 in 2019.
