OVERVIEW
The GlobalEM 2024 Symposium is unique in that it brings together international experts in high-power electromagnetics. This Symposium started as a small gathering organized on Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, by the late Dr. Carl Baum as the first Nuclear EMP (electromagnetic pulse) Meeting (NEM) in 1973. Since 1978, the SUMMA Foundation, a non-profit organization, has sponsored the Symposium. In 1994, the Symposium was held in Bordeaux, France, as EUROEM and subsequently rotated between Europe and North America as EUROEM and AMEREM, respectively. In 2015, the Symposium was organized in Jeju, South Korea, as ASIAEM. Beginning in 2022, the series was renamed GlobalEM and will continue to rotate annually among North America, Europe, and Asia.
GlobalEM 2024 includes social/networking events, invited speakers, numerous technical papers, an exhibition, and a technical tour! AT&T Conference Center is ideally located in downtown Austin, near the University of Texas at Austin campus, restaurants and shops, as well as Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. A block of guest rooms have been reserved at the AT&T Conference Center at a discounted group rate.
