Process Change for Member Driven Initiative Proposals

Due to overwhelming interest in Member Driven Initiative funding, the IEEE Signal Processing Society has changed its process for submitting proposals through the program. This includes proposals for Forums, Regional Meetings, and Chapter Driven Initiatives. This change does not impact the Seasonal Schools program.

Effective immediately, the Member Driven Initiative program will review proposals on a semi-annual schedule. While proposals will be accepted year-round, events scheduled to occur within the timeframes designated below will be asked to submit their proposals by a specific deadline to be considered. This will result in a more efficient approval process and more strategic allocation of available funding.

For the upcoming Member Driven Initiative cycle:
 

Member Driven Initiative Events Held Proposals Due
Summer April-September 2020 July 2019
Winter October-March 2021 January 2020

 

Interested in organizing a local event? Head to our website for more details and complete the proposal form to be considered for an event in your area! If you have any questions, please contact the SPS Member Driven Initiatives team at sps-mdi@listserv.ieee.org.
