A couple weeks ago the Antennas and Propagation community descended on the French capital city for the annual week long EUCAP conference.


Held at the Palais de Congres, the conference kicked off with the Welcome Ceremony, led by chairs Alain Sibille and Cyril Luxey. After they detailed the history of EurAPP and EUCAP, they introduced a number of sponsoring organisations, including Rob Lewis, the chair of the TPN who spoke on behalf of The IET.

The conference kicked off in full after that, with a number of convened sessions, exhibition stands meetings and social events happening throughout the five days.


The IET Communities and Publishing teams had a stand at the conference; we loved meeting so many delegates throughout the week – I know the boxes of Skittles were a particular hit with our visitors!

The conference ended on Friday where the EUCAP flag was officially handed over to the 2018 chairs, Yang Hao and Tony Brown.

As you will know by now, The IET Events team are the PCO (professional conference organisers) for the 2018 edition and they were also in attendance – we know a lot of people enjoyed the £1 (chocolate) coins they were handing out!

The call for papers for 2018 is now open – we hope to see you in London next year for another successful EUCAP conference!
