Attendees of the 2024 conference in Montreal celebrated the chance to interact and share ideas with their peers.

"Interacting with students and young professionals at the conference was incredibly energizing and inspiring. Their enthusiasm and fresh perspectives remind me of the limitless potential within the next generation of leaders," said Eleke Ukpabi, president of United Strategies LLC. "It's definitely a mutually beneficial exchange that I find deeply rewarding."

"The best part is that I get to meet a lot of different people from the same industry because it's hard to meet industrial engineering people outside of school or around the campus, except for our colleagues," said Soo-Eun Kim, an Oregon State University student.

"My favorite aspect of attending the Annual Conference is not only having the opportunity to reconnect with old friends but also getting to know new friends in our ISE community," said Jianjun "Jan" Shi, a Georgia Tech professor and scheduled keynote speaker.
