Goals:

Argentina IEEE goals for ARGENCON are:
· Hold a biennial own event to disseminate and exchange activities “IEEE technical field”, bringing together stakeholders in the broad spectrum of knowledge areas covered by the Institute such as power, computing, communications, Bioengineering, Robotics, Aerospace, Artificial Intelligence and Oceanic Engineering, as well as ‘cross-cutting’ areas, such as Education, Engineering Management and Social Impact of Technology.
· Collaborate in the effort to promote interest and enthusiasm in young people studying and training in science and technology.
· Promote the involvement of different branches of industry in order to promote joint activities. Contributing, in this way, the primary objective of the IEEE, “Advancing Technology for Humanity”.

Call for Papers:

About Argentina Section of IEEE

The IEEE and IEEE Argentina Section
The IEEE is the world’s largest professional association dedicated to advancing excellence and technological innovation for the benefit of
mankind. IEEE and its members inspire a global community through IEEE highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards,
and professional and educational activities.
The acronym IEEE, usually pronounced “I-triple-E” comes the Insitute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, the name under which the
company is registered in New York, USA. Currently, besides electrical and electronics engineers it includes professionals, practitioners and
students of many new technical specialties that have emerged since.
Its origins started in the AIEE, American Institute of Electrical Engineers, founded in 1884 and the IRE Institute of Radio Engineers in
1912. The two institutions merged in 1968 to form the IEEE.
IEEE members are individuals and IEEE activities worldwide the result of voluntary activity thereof.
Section IEEE Argentina was founded in 1939 as Section Buenos Aires IRE, and currently has Subsection Cordoba, Chapters of 23
Technical Societies; the Technology Management Council; Affinity Groups Young Professionals, Lifetime Partners and Women in
Engineering and 30 Student Branches spread throughout the country. Also with an Argentine Chapter of IEEE SIGHT, Special Interest
Group on Humanitary Technology.

Relations with local institutions
Section Argentina has cooperation agreements with various local entities, professional institutions and universities, in order to
join forces to benefit their respective memberships in the development of technical and professional activities.
It is also often co-participate in the organization of technical and vocational institutions other environmental activities, when
combination of objectives for their implementation.
