ICASSP 2028 — IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing
by IEEE Signal Processing Society
The world's largest signal processing conference, at the Tokyo International Forum
About This Event
ICASSP 2028, the IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, runs 28 May to 2 June 2028 at the Tokyo International Forum in Tokyo, Japan, under the theme "Smart and Sustainable Signal Processing for the Future". ICASSP is the IEEE Signal Processing Society's flagship and the largest conference in signal processing; the Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, which support the event locally, expect approximately 4,000 participants from around the world. The series runs a wide standing programme well beyond the paper track: special sessions, grand challenges, satellite workshops, Show & Tell demos, ETON talks, short courses and tutorials all carry their own calls, alongside plenary talks. The immediately preceding edition, ICASSP 2027, is in Toronto, Canada on 16-21 May 2027.

Why Attend
Speech and audio is the interface layer of most agentic products now — voice agents, meeting intelligence, contact-centre analytics, in-car assistants, clinical dictation — and ICASSP is where the underlying recognition, synthesis, enhancement and speaker-verification methods are published before they surface in an API. For a CTO or VP the practical draws are the grand challenges, effectively public bake-offs on shared data that show which approaches survive contact with real audio, and the short courses and tutorials, which are the cheapest way to bring an engineering team current. A Tokyo edition also concentrates the Japanese and wider Asian audio-hardware, robotics and automotive supply chain in one venue.
Event Features
- ✓Main paper track across the ICASSP technical areas
- ✓Call for Special Sessions
- ✓Call for Grand Challenges — shared-task evaluations on common datasets
- ✓Call for Satellite Workshops
- ✓Call for Show & Tell demos
- ✓Call for Short Courses and Tutorials
- ✓ETON talks and the plenary programme
What Makes This Unique
- ★IEEE Signal Processing Society flagship and the largest signal-processing conference — approximately 4,000 delegates expected in Tokyo.
- ★Carries a published theme, "Smart and Sustainable Signal Processing for the Future", which shapes the special-session and challenge programme.
- ★Programme is far broader than a paper track: grand challenges, satellite workshops, Show & Tell demos, ETON talks and short courses each run their own call for submissions.
- ★Venue and dates locked years ahead at the Tokyo International Forum, with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau backing the event locally.
