IEEE Sri Lanka Section Student | Young Professionals | Women in Engineering Congress - Day 2
November 4, 2023 · 2:30 AM - 10:30 AM @ Chilaw, Carolina Beach Hotel
Description
The IEEE Sri Lanka Section Student | Young Professionals | Women in Engineering (IEEE SL SYW) Congress 2023 was the 12th instalment of the flagship event of the IEEE Sri Lanka Section. It was a gathering of nearly 200 undergraduates, graduates, academics and industry professionals from all across the country. The theme of this year’s Congress was “Dreams Conquer Boundaries”, implying that following the past challenging years the country has faced, it was time for Sri Lankans to put forth new innovative solutions and progress towards reaching their dreams in whichever path they desire. Under this theme, the Congress championed entrepreneurship, innovation, diversity and inclusion and climate action through its plethora of keynote speeches, technical sessions, hands-on workshops, panel discussions, professional development sessions and team-building activities. This 3-day event took place from the 3rd to the 5th of November 2023 at the Carolina Beach Hotel, Chilaw, Sri Lanka. The second day of the IEEE SL SYW Congress 2023 took place in tandem with the IEEE Sri Lanka Section Signal Processing Society Chapter Member Driven Summit 2023, organised in collaboration with the IEEE Sri Lanka Section Signal Processing Society Chapter. Aimed at fostering a strong signal processing community in Sri Lanka, the Summit served as a gathering for professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts in the field of signal processing. Participants were able delve into emerging technologies, research trends, and insights into practical applications of signal processing through a range of technical sessions, workshops, and panel discussions. Day two of the Congress also featured the IEEE Sri Lanka Section Awards Night 2023. The awards presented during the evening recognised outstanding achievements of volunteers and organisational units within the IEEE Sri Lanka Section over the past year. The list of awards are available on the IEEE Sri Lanka Section Awards website, and the award winners were announced on the social media platforms of the IEEE Sri Lanka Section. The IEEE SL SYW Congress 2023 was supported by the IEEE Signal Processing Society, IEEE Young Professionals, IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society and IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society. Tech One Global was the Bronze Partner for the event, which was also partnered by Carolina Beach Hotel and T-LAB Clothing.
