CIES 2023 is an annual meeting, held from February 14-22. It consists of two online days (February 14-15) and five on-site days (February 18-22), with a meeting break in between (February 16-17).
On-site, you will experience a full meeting with powerful keynote speakers, plenary situations designed to renew bonds between CIES attendees, social and cultural events, and of course, the main draw of the meeting, concurrent sessions featuring cutting-edge research from our CIES members.
The Online Meeting Hub, enhanced from last year, is the only platform that will be used to allow all attendees (including both on-site and virtual participants) to enjoy online sessions. Please note that key plenary events, such as keynote speeches, and the CIES State of the Society will be live-streamed for all online attendees.
