The 29th IEEE ITSC 2026 will be hosted in the city of Naples, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and considered one of Italy’s most beautiful cities, with a vibrant arts and culture scene. Founded by Greeks in the first millennium BC, Naples is one of the oldest continuously inhabited urban areas in the world, whose contemporary urban fabric preserves the elements of its long and eventful history. Located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, its setting on the Bay gives it an outstanding universal value which has had a profound influence in many parts of Europe and beyond.

As part of your trip, go sightseeing Campania Region, its coast (Amalfi and Sorrento), its islands (Capri, Ischia, Procida). Discover its landscapes – that will take your breath away – rich history and delicious food, to make your trip nothing short of unforgettable.

We look forward to seeing you in Naples !
