Does my conference need a sponsorship MOU?

Does my conference need a sponsorship MOU?

A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is required when two or more entities agree to provide co-sponsorship to a conference. These entities may be all IEEE organizational units or IEEE and not-for-profit non-IEEE organizations.

See IEEE Policy 10.1.5 for more information on the MOU.

IEEE has standard MOUs in place for technical and financial conferences and are generated by the IEEE CEE team. Operational agreements can be established outside of this process. Changes to standard MOUs must be approved by the IEEE Legal and Compliance department.  

If you have questions about sponsorship MOU approval, please contact the CEE team.
