The International Programme Committee of the International Astronautical Congress for 2020(IAC2020) calls on interested individuals to submit their abstracts for the Technical sessions of the conference holding in Dubai, United Arab Emirate.

The conference, taking place from12-16 October 2020, will deliberate on contributing to humanity and science by strengthening and enhancing cooperation between all countries in the space sector under the theme: “Inspire, Innovate and Discover for the Benefit of Humankind”.

 The conference will also serve as a platform for stakeholders from around the world, including presidents and CEOs of international space agencies, decision-makers, researchers, academics and professionals to share experiences, build strategic partnerships and support international cooperation in space-related activities.

For individuals submitting abstracts, the conference presents outstanding opportunities for conference recognition, global networking and a chance to get published. All accepted abstracts will get published on IAC Proceedings, which are distributed to +6,500 congress delegates. Elsevier’s SCOPUS and COMPENDEX, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature, also index IAC Papers.

Furthermore, submitting an abstract allows you to be creative in visually sharing your presentation as either an oral or interactive presentation. It is an opportunity to present your work to a wide international audience, gain experience in giving talks, and earn recognition for their research progress.

Also, IP reports some of the most up-to-date research at the IAC and are a very useful aid for networking and discussing findings with others interested in the same questions or approaches.

 IAC will award prizes to the best 5 Interactive Presentations.
