More about POCO
POCO is intended to serve the needs of the IEEE Conference Organizer, through education, discussion and access to 'Best Practices.' It is a forum to maintain a voice for the organizer community, to learn about and discuss conference issues with IEEE Staff, industry experts and your peers.
POCO is comprised of seminars, focused sessions and plenty of opportunity for attendees to exchange ideas, success stories and challenges with other IEEE Conference Organizers - all designed to foster a sense of community and create a global support network.
There is no registration fee for POCO, and meals are provided. Many IEEE organizational units (OU's) will reimburse travel and lodging expenses for attendees. Potential attendees should obtain OU approval before registering, if they will seek funding.
