Join us for IEEE Day 2025 at Memorial University!
This year’s theme, “Ocean, Arctic & Remote-Tech,” celebrates the power of multidisciplinary collaboration in tackling challenges that matter for our region and beyond.

Hear from leading voices in academia and industry as they share perspectives on digital twins, Arctic monitoring, ship design innovation, and more. Talks designed not to overwhelm with technical detail, but to spark curiosity and inspire fresh ideas.

And don't miss the chance to explore the future of computing with a hands-on quantum coding workshop, open to everyone. Along with networking, pizza, and talks, this event is about celebrating innovation together as one IEEE community and maybe even planting the seeds for your next research idea or project.

This event is free to attend, but registration is required.  RSVP Now
