The IEEE Nanotechnology Council (NTC) is calling for proposals for future sites for IEEE NANO 2022 and for IEEE NMDC 2021.
Extended Deadline October 15
IEEE NANO 2022:
The annual IEEE International Conference on Nanotechnology is the NTC’s flagship event. The conference scope covers a wide range in nanoscience and technology. In particular, it covers nanofabrication, nanomanufacturing, nanomaterials, nanobiomedicine, nanoenergy, nanoplasmonics, nanoelectronics, nanosensors and nanoactuators, characterisation and modelling of nano structures and devices. Research in both experiments and simulation is reported. Industry is encouraged to present its research projects. NANO 2019 and 2020 will be held in Macau, China; Montreal Canada; respectively.
We are now seeking proposals for NANO 2022 which is expected to run in IEEE Regions 10 (Asia). NANO should be run at the end of July, preferably in the last week.
For conference history see https://ieeenano.org/ieee-nano-conferences/
Early indication of an intention to submit a proposal is strongly recommended. Candidates for NANO 2022 will be expected to present an informal 5-10 minute “Proposal in preparation” at the NTC Excom and Adcom meetings at NANO 2019 in Macau, China. (The presentation can be done remotely, on-line.)
Proposal deadline:
- NANO 2022: October 15, 2019
IEEE NMDC 2021:
The Nanotechnology Materials and Devices Conference (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 2019 will be held in Stockholm, Sweden. Past locations of the NMDC have been in Asia (Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore), USA (California, Michigan, Hawaii, Alaska, Portland), and Europe (Sicily, France).
We are now seeking proposals for IEEE NMDC 2021 which is expected to run in IEEE Regions 1-7 (Americas), typically between mid-September and mid-October.

Proposal deadline:
- NMDC 2021:
October 15, 2019
PROPOSAL FORMAT:
Proposals may be submitted in PowerPoint, Word, or PDF formats, but PowerPoint files are required for the presentation. A Conference Proposal Reference guide and a PPT template is available on request. Proposals should cover:
- Venue:City (or nearby city for rural locations); visitor access (e.g. daily flights,) with typical travel costs; hotel costs (including wi-fi, breakfast, etc?); tourist information
- Facilities:Hotel or campus venue if known (with verification of availability for formal proposals); lecture theater and meal capacities
- Personnel:General Chair(s), Program Chair(s), Treasurer, other volunteer personnel if known, (e.g program/advisory committees), and any administrative staff or management company.
- Budget information:
- For informal proposals:Target registration rates, estimated number of attendees, estimated income (registration, tutorials, exhibition, grants/donations, etc), estimated expenses (meals/receptions/breaks, administrative costs, etc.), other features of interest
- For formal proposals:As above, but with more detail covering all budgeted income and expenses in the required IEEE NetSuite spreadsheet format. Note that the (Income-Expense)/Expense ratio must be at least 20%, in accordance with IEEE policy.
Formal proposals must be e-mailed prior to the appropriate deadline to: NTC Vice-President for Conferences Lixin Dong, (L.X.Dong@cityu.edu.hk) with copies to Ed Perkins, NTC Secretary (e.perkins@ieee.org).
Contact Lixin Dong (L.X.Dong@cityu.edu.hk) with any questions.
