The new IEEE Event Finder mobile app lets you search for an event not only by its name but also by city, state, or province; by IEEE region, section, or chapter; or by the IEEE society or council sponsoring it. You can download the free app from the Apple App or Google Play store.

It is the first app to come out of the IEEE Mobile Center of Excellence, which is developing apps for IEEE groups. The center is part of IEEE’s IT department, in Piscataway, N.J.

The app was developed in collaboration with IEEE Asia and Pacific Region members, who came up with the concept. The app was launched on 24 August in conjunction with the region’s 50th anniversary.
