Call For Papers
IMS2025 (www.ims-ieee.org) is the centerpiece of Microwave Week 2025, which includes the RFIC Symposium (www.rfic-ieee.org) and the ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference (www.arftg.org).

Microwave Week is the world’s largest gathering and industry exhibition for MHz through THz professionals. IMS2025 will feature a far-reaching Technical Program focused on innovative and disruptive technology, applications, and
entrepreneurship. Microwave Week provides a wide variety of technical and social activities for attendees and exhibitors. In addition to the diverse choices in technical sessions, attendees can explore interactive forums, plenary and panel sessions,
workshops, application seminars, and also participate in paper contests for Students, Industry, and Young Professionals.

Welcome to IMS2025, where research and innovation create new opportunities in iconic San Francisco, California. The symposium will be held in the newly renovated Moscone Convention Center that is nestled in the dynamic South of Market (SoMa)/ Yerba Buena district and is surrounded by cultural landmarks such as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) and the picturesque Yerba Buena Gardens. During your stay, explore some of San Francisco's renowned attractions, including the Golden Gate Bridge and Fisherman’s Wharf. Other notable tourist spots in San Francisco include Pier 39, Golden Gate Park, the California Academy of Sciences, the de Young Museum, the Asian Arts Museum, and the Exploratorium.

The San Francisco Bay Area is the largest hub for RF/microwave and semiconductor companies, hosting a significant population of high-frequency/high-speed engineers and entrepreneurs. Silicon Valley, a global icon of technology, is nestled within this region and is synonymous with cutting-edge technology and innovation with tech giants like Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Apple, Google, Meta, and Nvidia. The valley’s unique ecosystem, fueled by a tradition of entrepreneurship and culture that embraces risk and failure, is a model for innovation hubs worldwide. Silicon Valley continues to attract top talent and venture capital, driving progress through the Wireless Golden Gateway. We look forward to welcoming you to San Francisco for IMS2025!

IMS2025 Conference Themes
