ICIS - Convene

Convene

ICIS convenes representatives of the diverse interests within the civil infrastructure systems community to address key infrastructure problems, issues and opportunities. Planning and managing infrastructure systems requires deliberation and interaction among a wide variety of stakeholders who bring different perspectives, interests and expertise. Through forums, workshops, and conferences ICIS brings together representatives from industry, government, community-based organizations, academia, and user groups to increase understanding and build more effective relationships.
