• IEEE Life Members Evolution Conference 2025

  The IEEE Life Members Evolution Conference 2025 will be held 11-13 June 2025 at the Joyce Cummings Center at Tufts University, Medford, Massachusetts, in the Boston area. This conference follows the successful IEEE Life Members Evolution Conference 2024.

  The Life Members Evolution Conference 2025 in Boston fits this technology conference, as Boston is one of the top tech centers in the United States and the world.

  The Life Members Evolution Conference 2024 featured outstanding keynote speakers such as Rodney Brooks, AI and Robotics, and Dr. Karen Panetta, AI Research. Other speakers, such as Kendra Cook, spoke on “Space Technology for Interplanetary Exploration.” Expect speakers and presenters of the same caliber in a broad spectrum of disciplines at the conference.

  New to the 2025 Evolution Conference will be the addition of a Technical Papers Track. A call for papers has been circulated and can be found on the conference website.

  Expect details regarding registration, lodging, transportation options, and corresponding accessibility information to be publicized on the conference website as the details become available.

  The IEEE Life Members Evolution Conference 2025 website is lifemembersconference.ieee.org.
