Call for Proposals for Future Sites for IEEE-NANO 2029 and IEEE NMDC 2028
The IEEE Nanotechnology Council (NTC) is calling for proposals for
future sites for IEEE-NANO 2029 and IEEE NMDC 2028
A. Call for proposals for future site for IEEE-NANO 2029
Initial Proposal Deadline: 30 November 2026
The IEEE International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO) is the flagship IEEE Nanotechnology conference. The conference scope covers a wide range in nanoscience and technology. In particular, it covers AI in Nanotechnology, Emerging Plasma Nanotechnologies, Heterogenous Integration and Chiplets, Modeling and Simulation, Nano-Acoustic Devices, Processes, and Materials, Nano-Biomedicine, Nanoelectronics, Nano-Energy, Environment, and Safety, Nanofabrication, Nanomagnetics, Nanomaterials, Nano-Metrology and Characterization, Nano-Optics, Nanophotonics, and Nano-Optoelectronics, Nanopackaging, Nanorobotics and Nanomanufacturing, Nanoscale Communications, Nanosensors and Nanoactuators, Nanotechnology for Soft Electronics, Quantum, Neuromorphic, and Unconventional Computing, and Spintronics. NANO2027 and NANO 2026 will be held in Messina, Italy and Nanjing, China respectively. Recent conferences were in D.C., USA (2025), Gijon, Spain (2024), Jeju, Korea (2023), Balearic Islands, Spain (2022), Macau (2019), Cork (2018), Pittsburgh (2017), Sendai (2016), Rome (2015), and Toronto (2014). NANO 2020 and 2021 were held virtually due to the pandemic. NANO typically runs between early- to mid-July. We are now seeking proposals for IEEE-NANO 2029 which is expected to run in IEEE Region 10: North Asia or Region 11: South Asia and the Pacific.

Proposal deadline: 30 November 2026
Early indication of an intention to submit a proposal is strongly recommended. Candidates for NANO 2029 will be expected to present a 5-10 minute “Proposal in Preparation” based on their initial proposal at the Fall NTC Conference Committee meeting, and a complete proposal at the NTC Excom and AdCom meetings in July 2027 held at IEEE-NANO 2027 in Messina, Italy.
PROPOSAL FORMAT:
Initial proposals should be prepared in powerpoint presentation format. NTC Conference Proposal powerpoint template should be used (link to template).
Formal proposals must be e-mailed prior to the appropriate deadline to: NTC Vice-President for Conferences John Yeow (jyeow@uwaterloo.ca) with copies to Ed Perkins, NTC Secretary (e.perkins@ieee.org).
Contact John Yeow (jyeow@uwaterloo.ca) with any questions.
B. Call for proposals for future site for IEEE NMDC 2028
Proposal Deadline: 30 November 2026
The IEEE Nanotechnology Materials and Devices Conference (IEEE NMDC) aims to develop critical assessment of existing work and future directions in nanotechnology research from every sector in the nanotechnology research field, with a special focus on materials and devices. NMDC will be held in Xanthi, Greece (2026) and Kuala Lumpur (2027). Previous NMDC were held in Paestum, Italy (2023), Salt Lake City, USA (2024). Other locations include Asia (Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Nanjing), North America (California, Michigan, Hawaii, Alaska, Oregon), Canada (Vancouver, BC) and Europe (Italy, France, Sweden). NMDC typically runs in early- to mid-October.
We are now seeking proposals for IEEE NMDC 2028 which is expected to run in IEEE Regions 2-7 (USA/Jamaica/Canada).
