You are invited to participate in the leading forum for the exchange of information on technical innovations and solutions for the cable and connectivity industry. Submit an abstract to be considered for inclusion in the technical symposium component of the 2022 IWCS Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum. If your work is of interest to the worldwide cable and connectivity industry, then it should be presented at this event.
New Opportunities for Authors!
Celebrating the Women of Our Industry
The 2022 Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum will feature special components that celebrate the women of our industry. One way our female colleagues will be recognized is by hosting a new session during the Technical Symposium Papers that features papers contributed by our female colleagues. When submitting an abstract, female authors can choose for their paper to be included in this distinguished session. Learn about IWCS’s celebration of Women’s History Month in our recent news article.
Refer Your Colleagues
A chance to receive complimentary full-access registration to the 2022 Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum. Share the opportunity to author a paper with your colleagues throughout the industry. When your colleagues submit their abstract, they will be asked to enter your name as the referral source. The Technical Paper Author who refers the most authors of Technical Papers other than their own will receive complimentary full-access registration to the 2022 Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum in Providence, Rhode Island.
