IEEE SPS MDI Event 2026 brings together researchers, engineers, industry experts, humanitarian technologists, and innovators from around the world to explore and advance the future of signal processing and emerging technologies.

The event will highlight cutting-edge innovations in AI-driven signal processing, next-generation communications, multimedia processing, smart sensing, remote sensing, and other emerging technologies that address both industrial and societal challenges. In alignment with IEEE Humanitarian Technologies Board (HTB) goals, the conference will showcase how signal processing can be applied to improve healthcare, agriculture, education, disaster resilience, environmental monitoring, and sustainable community development.

Participants will have the opportunity to:

  • Share and discuss the latest research breakthroughs and technological advancements.

  • Explore innovative humanitarian technology solutions that contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

  • Network with leading professionals, academics, industry practitioners, and humanitarian technology leaders.

  • Develop collaborations and future research initiatives that create positive social impact through technology.

Join us for this immersive conference as we innovate, inspire, and harness signal processing technologies to advance both technological excellence and humanitarian impact.
