IEEE President, Prof. Kathleen Kramer, will be visiting Brisbane on February 24th. This is a unique opportunity for our Queensland members to meet the IEEE President in person and hear directly from her as she introduces herself, discusses her leadership approach, and outlines her priorities for 2025. Additionally, this event offers members the chance to ask questions that are relevant to the Queensland community. To ensure broader accessibility, the event will be held in a hybrid format, with a strong encouragement for members to attend in person.
