Call for proposals: The IEEE Nanotechnology Council is requesting proposals for 2023 Emerging and Selected Topics for Industry Forums (NTCIF) which should be organized along emerging and cross-discipline topics, where industrial speakers describe real-world challenges and academic speakers describe potential technologies that could address those challenges. These topics may be associated with the themes typically covered in the yearly IEEE NANO meeting, the flagship IEEE Nanotechnology Conference. These include a wide range of nanoscience and nanotechnology topics, encompassing nanorobotics; quantum and neuromorphic computing; nanobiomedicine; nanosensors and nanoactuators; nano-optics/photonics/optoelectronics; nanoelectronics, spintronics, and plasmonics; nanomagnetics; nano-acoustics; nanoenergy; nanoscale communications; modeling, simulation, and characterization of nanostructures and devices; nanofabrication, packaging, and nanomanufacturing; and nanomaterials.

Dates and Format: This call is for forums to be held before 30 September 2023. A subsequent call will be made for the rest of 2023. Proposed Forums may take the form of a Webinar or as part of a special session of the IEEE-NANO 2023 (July 2-5, 2023, Jeju Island, Korea).

Funding: Due to time constraints, this current round of forums will not be funded, but virtual forums will be supported using IEEE videoconferencing resources and physical meeting space could be made available as part of IEEE-NANO 2023.

Benefits to Participants: The goals of these Forums are to promote and sustain robust industry engagement across the NTC and, more generally, to increase the interaction between academia and industry.

You are encouraged to submit a proposal to hold a 2023 IEEE NTC Industry Forum. If the proposal is approved, the IEEE Nanotechnology Council will provide upon request teleconferencing support and/or physical facilities and web promotion to support the initiative.

In writing your proposal, please address the following aspects:
1. Aim and theme.
2. Lectures and lecturers. Indicate if lecturers have agreed to participate.
3. Tentative program and schedule.

Important Dates:
• Eligible period: May to September, 2023
• Deadline for submitting the proposal: 1 April 2023
• Notification of the outcome of the review process: 1 May 2023

Please submit your proposal to the Industrial Advisory Committee Chair, Dr. Daniel Gopman at daniel.gopman@nist.gov. Potential proposal champions are encouraged to contact the committee to express their interest, and to work with the committee to strengthen their proposals.

We would like to bring your attention to this first Call for Proposals of the NTC Emerging and Selected Topics for Industry Forums (NTCIF) 2023. Submissions are due by 5 March 2023.

The NTC Industrial Advisory Committee is launching its NTCIF program on emerging and cross-discipline topics, where industrial speakers describe real-world challenges and academic speakers describe potential technologies that could address those challenges. The goals of these Forums are to promote and sustain robust industry engagement across the NTC and, more generally, to increase the interaction between academia and industry.

We are calling for proposals from NTC participants and companies with invited speakers (may include NTC Distinguished Lecturers, industry/academic speakers). Proposed Forums may take the form of a Webinar or as part of a special session of the IEEE-NANO 2023 (July 2-5, 2023, Jeju Island, Korea).

This call is for forums to be held before 15 July 2023. A subsequent call will be made for the rest of 2023.

Please do not hesitate to contact us using the form below if you need any further details or would like to discuss forum ideas.

Best Regards,

Dan Gopman, Chair, IEEE NTC Industry Advisory Committee
