Creating greater engagement with industry is an important element in retaining younger members in the IEEE. The majority of our IEEE student members are employed in industry and if we are to keep them as members and volunteers in IEEE once they start working, we need to provide value to people engaged in the practical applications of technology.
This year there has been a focus on increasing the number and diversity of industry focused events. I want to talk about some of these, in particular the World Technology Summit, WTS, organized by members of the IEEE Industry Engagement Committee and held in San Jose, CA, the New Age AI events that have been held and organized by the IEEE Seattle section, and the SC24 conference jointed organized by the IEEE Computer Society and the ACM in Atlanta, GA.

They began with an in-person event in August, the IEEE New Era World Leaders AI Summit that featured industry keynote talks, workshops and hands-on classes on using artificial intelligence in industry.
The 2024 Super Computing Conference, SC24, organized by the IEEE Computer Society, CS and the ACM was held in Atlanta, Georgia November 17-22. This is a conference that explores all aspects of high-performance computing, HPC, hardware as well as software and provides a major forum for those involved in research and development as well as deployment of computing, including AI.
