The TIE Forum, which stands for "Technology, Industry, and Education Forum," is a part of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) conference portfolio, where professionals from various sectors gather to discuss and explore the latest advancements in geospatial technology. Sidharth Misra and Omkar Pradhan from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory discuss their journeys and involvement with IEEE and GRSS. The TIE Forum was once a catch-all type of programming at IGARSS, with topics ranging from women in engineering, young professionals, industry-related talks, and soft skills. But because it has grown in popularity, the process of selecting speakers has become more and more of a full time job for the organizing committee ‒ a good problem to have indeed! Listen in to the impact of this forum on the larger GRSS conference portfolio, hear memorable stories from past TIE sessions and gain insights into the future of GRSS conferences and events.
