CIS Involvement in Conferences
The involvement of an IEEE society in a conference can be at 3 different levels as outlined in the following.
Sole-Sponsorship
Sole sponsorship indicates full and sole involvement of the society in a conference. If a society agrees to sponsor a conference, this will mean accepting
complete responsibility for the technical, financial, publicity and administrative aspects of the conference. Such conferences must include the IEEE logo and name in
the conference title and all conference publications and announcements.
Co-Sponsorship
This indicates a shared involvement among several entities, one of which is the IEEE society. Other co-sponsors could be IEEE Organizational Unit(s) (societies,
sections, chapters, etc.) or other "Not-for-Profit" non-IEEE organizations. For such conferences it is recommended that the IEEE logo be used in all conference
publications and announcements.
Technical Co-Sponsorship
Technical Co-Sponsorship indicates direct and substantial involvement by the society solely in the organization of the technical program. The society has no
financial involvement in the conference. The IEEE name may not be used in the conference title, but the IEEE logo may be used in conference publications and
promotional materials.
The responsibilities of the society in these three different levels of involvement can be tabulated as shown.
| Responsibility | Sole-Sponsorship | Co-Sponsorship | Technical Co-Sponsorship |
