Welcome to Philadelphia, home of the
2003 International Microwave Symposium! The fifth-largest city in the United
States and the second-largest on the East Coast, Philadelphia (known from
June 8-13, 2003 as Microwave Metropolis) is one of the world's most dynamic
destinations. In Philadelphia, you will be at the crossroads of big city
excitement and hometown hospitality where the promise of the future meets
old world charm. Most famous as the birthplace of American independence
and home of the Liberty Bell, Philadelphia offers a unique variety of attractions,
culture, entertainment and activity that is sure to bring a smile to
your face and the desire to return soon. For this visit, your Philadelphia-based
IMS2003 Steering Committee is very proud to present to you the fruits
of our 8 years in hard labor: Microwave Week, 2003. This is the
highlight event for our industry and profession, and all hands are onboard
to deliver the newest research, the most startling breakthroughs, innovative
product announcements, and a very fine social and Guest program intended
to nurture networking while satisfying the need for experiencing new
places. Among the many innovations
for IMS2003, the Pennsylvania Convention Center will provide seamless
802.11b wireless internet access for all participants equipped with a
laptop and 802.11b wireless card. The busy week will include a record number
of high quality Workshops and Special Sessions, the RFIC Symposium, the
IMS, ARFTG (all with superb technical content, of course), an enjoyable
Guest program and an enthusiastic gathering of exhibitors in our very conveniently
located, easily accessible Microwave Show. The multitude of social
events will contribute to your sleeplessness, but the hotels are so close
that you won’t have to waste sleep time in travel. I personally offer
you my best wishes for a fun-filled, exciting, educational and enjoyable
week.
