 We are pleased to invite you to join us in San Francisco, California, USA for the INCOSE International Workshop 2009, to be held Saturday, 31, January Tuesday, 3, February at the Westin San Francisco Airport Hotel.
What is the International Workshop?
INCOSE's International Workshop is the event of the year for systems engineers to contribute to the state of the art. Unlike INCOSE's annual International Symposium and other conferences, there are no paper or panel presentations. Instead, attendees spend four days working alongside fellow systems engineers who are there to make a difference. Systems engineers at all levels and from all backgrounds are encouraged to engage in working sessions and contribute their knowledge and experience to take the discipline forward.
IW2009 facilitates working meetings for groups engaged in INCOSE's major projects and in international Standards development, workshops to explore the Systems Engineering challenges in new sectors, opportunities for Chapter leaders to meet and share best practice, support sessions to help you get the most out of INCOSE's shared working environment and a broad range of other technical meetings. Planned sessions and points of contact will be published on the website as these become available, and attendees are encouraged to contact the relevant session leaders before the event for further information.
IW2009 is only open to INCOSE members. However, non-members can join INCOSE prior to the IW. For more information on membership, please visit the membership pages or email the INCOSE Central Office.
Those attending from outside the USA are reminded to apply early for your visa. Additional information is available online.
