Based upon the one-day Symposium held during 1985 and the overwhelming participation it was decided to coordinate all the Micro Electronics activities in India among various academic Institutions, R & D Laboratories and other Industries. Prof.Sonde the doyen of the Micro Electronics in India has initiated the activity and arranged for the establishment of the Indian Society for Hybrid Micro Circuits i.e. ISHM (India Chapter) a ? non profit technical society drawing the membership with like minded experts in the area of Micro Electronics in India. This ISHM Society has been functioning and organising periodic conferences of National and International participation till 1995.
International Micro Electronics and Packaging Society is the outcome of the successful merger of ISHM & IEPS. This society came into existence since November 1996 and drawing affiliation to the IMAPS International Chapter globally. Subsequently, IMAPS India has successfully conducted three international conferences namely EMIT-96, EMIT-98 & EMIT-2K at Bangalore with overwhelming participation globally. It is to be noted that around 50 NRI participants are significantly contributing to the IMAPS activity in India.
Subsequently, the Society was registered under the Karnataka Government Societies ACT and presently it is a full-fledged registered society having its office at :
Bangalore: 560 011.
Phone : 99025 77092
Email ID : imapsind@gmail.com
The Office bearers of the registered society are elected among the members once in two years. This Society has successfully conducted one national conference namely IINC-2004, at Bangalore with the presentation of about 40 papers addressing state-of-the-art activities in India. Presently, it is organsing another National Conference IINC-2005 jointly with IIT, Mumbai and IEEE, Mumbai Chapter during December 2005 at Mumbai.
It is proposed to revive the International Conference and accordingly it is planned to organise an event during December 2006 for which the society is soliciting participation from International IMAPS Chapter.
