For the RF/microwave industry, this event is one not to forget, the largest placeholder on the calendar. In years past, the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS) has been the technical conference and exhibition that brought the industry together for a week. But this isn’t just any year—the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus has forced most industries to be cautious how they do business.
However, the RF/microwave industry has always adapted to change and the way the internet is now used as a key channel of communications. The industry will support a traditional version of “Microwave Week” at the face-to-face version of the IEEE IMS 2021 Conference and Exhibition scheduled for June 7-10, 2021 at the Georgia World Congress in Atlanta, Ga. There’s also an online version taking place June 20-25, 2021, wherever they have internet access.
