Welcome to the SmartTalks!
Our webinars will happen on Monday at 5:30 PM.
Talks will be a networking opportunity that will allow you to present your research project at a high level. They will last between 10 to 20 minutes and will be followed by a Q&A session, starting from two spectators designated by the presenter.
Smart Talks are organized in collaboration with the IEEE Student Branch and with the Mu Nu Chapter of IEEE – HKN.
Current chairs and organizers:
