Tokyo has secured the winning bid to host the 2028 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP 2028) from May 29 to June 2 at the Tokyo International Forum.
Held under the theme of Smart and Sustainable Signal Processing for the Future, ICASSP – a world’s leading conference in the field of signal processing – is expected to attract approximately 4,000 participants from around the world.

Japan’s strong academic background in signal processing, international contributions to the field spearheaded by local signal processing societies, world-leading industrial research and a strong academic programme set out by the Japanese Bidding Committee were deciding factors in Tokyo’s bid win.
Support from the Tokyo Convention & Visitors and generous financial and in-kind support from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government were also essential in the selection.
