It was excellent seeing the community come together at the International Workshop! As we wrap up and return home, the focus naturally shifts to applying the insights gained and looking ahead to the 2026 International Symposium in Yokohama, Japan (13-18 June).
To help you secure support for your attendance, we give you the “Convince Your Boss” toolkit.
We know that justifying travel requires a clear focus on ROI. This toolkit is designed to help you frame the symposium not just as a conference, but as a technical necessity.
The toolkit includes:
- Justification Email: A template to help you frame the value of innovation and networking.
- Benefits One-Pager: A summary of how IS 2026 applies to active project challenges.
- Expense Worksheet: A fill-in sheet for registration, travel, and logistics to streamline budget approval.
We hope these resources make it easier for you to join us and we’ll see you in Japan!
