The inaugural IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit (IEEE VIC Summit) will take place at The Palace Hotel in San Francisco, CA, USA, on 25 May 2017. It will present a unique opportunity to meet, mingle, and network with peers and some of the top technology “giants” in the world. It will be a dynamic one-day event to showcase the breadth of engineering by bringing together innovators, visionaries, and leaders of technology in the Silicon Valley area to discuss what is imminent, to explore what is possible, and what will these emerging areas mean for the future.
