Soon, the picturesque town of Venice will be the host for the first in 2009 meeting of IEEE Region 8 Committee. The program of activities and initiatives for this year seems interesting and productive despite the current financial obstacles. The Venice event will serve as a base for the exchange of new concepts and solutions. One of our goals for the future is to continue our best practices and at the same time respond relevantly to the regional and global challenges. The format of our meetings will change its formula – it will be characterized by a lower number of reports and more time will be spent on interactive discussions. For final version of the reports please see the Venice page. Special thanks should go to Region 8 Secretary who has put a lot of effort and dedication into preparations and coordination of the Committee meeting. See you in Venice!
