ICPM 2020 and the Covid-19 outbreak

Dear all,

we are closely monitoring the situation in relation to coronavirus (COVID-19) and its potential impact upon the ICPM conference in October, along with the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society.

Based on current advice of the Italian Government and the World Health Organization (WHO), we are continuing working as planned to hold the ICPM 2020 conference on October 5-8, 2020 as a face-to-face meeting. There is no indication or official experts’ opinions from the Italian government or WHO that indicates that the COVID-19 situation should be still active in more than 6 months from now.

The Italian COVID-19 situation can be monitored, e.g., at http://covid19italy.herokuapp.com/, which is based on the official data available here.

It remains assured that our primary driver will always be the sanitary conditions and the health of participants. Therefore we are monitoring the facts on a daily basis, and the conference will adapt if conditions need.

For now, wherever you live, please #stayhome as much as possible, to save lives.

This page will keep you constantly informed.

Regards,
The General and Program Chairs
The ICPM Steering Committee
