History
Founded in 1969, the European Microwave Conference (EuMC) is the most important microwave event in Europe. It was first run on a two-year basis. The event became annual in 1974. With the help of a professional organizer, it became associated with an exhibition of microwave equipment.Since the very first EuMC the local committee has been helped in establishing a high-standard international conference by colleagues from all over Europe, including Central and Eastern Europe, as well as some from the U.S. In 1973-1974 it was decided to move toward a more organized structure with:
In 1995, during the Bologna EuMC, there were discussions within the MC on how to improve EuMC. An Adhoc Committee was formed with F.M. Landstorfer (Chair), A. Madjar, A. Räisänen, and A. Vander Vorst, which forwarded proposals to the MC. These were approved in Prague, April 1996. The MC created a six-member Steering Committee (StC) to move toward a greater management efficiency, with the members of the StC becoming members of the MC as well. Simultaneously, it appointed 5 members of this new StC, who were: L.P. Ligthart, The Netherlands, A. Madjar, Israel, H. Meinel, Germany, F. Myers, United Kingdom, and R. Sorrentino, Italy. R.H. Jansen was appointed a little later by the IEEE-MTT Society. The first meeting of the new StC occurred in London, June 29, 1996, and R. Sorrentino was elected Chairman. Following this decision, the EuMCs were fortunate enough to benefit from a number of distinguished and devoted colleagues. The 1997 StC comprised: R. Sorrentino (Chair), Italy, R.H. Jansen (appointed by IEEE MTT-S), Germany, L.P. Ligthart, The Netherlands, A. Madjar, Israel, H. Meinel, Germany, S.J. Nightingale, United Kingdom. The European Microwave Association (EuMA) was created in 1998 by the Founder members: L.P. Ligthart, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands who formed the first Board of Directors (BoD) of the EuMA, succeeding to the StC, and are legally lifetime members of the General Assembly (GA), succeeding to the MC. Since then, there has been renewal among the members of the BoD of EuMA: A. Vander Vorst, Belgium, replaced R.H. Jansen in 1998  |
