IUMRS-ICEM 2024
The IUMRS-ICEM 2024 will be the first conference to be held in Hong Kong jointly by the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS), Hong Kong Materials Research Society (HKMRS) and the Hong Kong Branch of National Precious Metals Material Engineering Research Center (NPMM) of City University of Hong Kong (CityU).
The IUMRS-ICEM 2024 will consist of stimulating program of plenary sessions, keynote speeches, panel discussions, poster presentations and exhibitions in advanced materials and technologies.
We aim to make the conference a genuine two-way process and as such, technology knowledge transfer, commercialization and industrialization can be further enhanced through the interactivity.
