IEEE WF-IoT2021 will be conducted as a Virtual and a Face-Face Conference. In view of the guidance about the COVID Pandemic and continued restrictions on international travel we have elected to hold the conference and all of its components in their entirety. In doing so we will provide all participants with a safe and convenient way to be involved. At the same time, we have programmed the World Forum to be highly interactive and timed presentations to encourage broad participation from around the Globe.

The Face-Face portion of the event will be held in New Orleans as originally planned and viewable by all registrants on-line. It will be conducted with proper precautions taken by the Conference Hotel, in a format that provides for social distancing and wearing of masks by all local attendees in accordance with best practices. The New Orleans program is built around topics of specific interest to New Orleans but also important for IoT. These include Workshops/Special Sessions on IoT for dealing with COVID-19, Flood Control and Mitigation, and the Hospitality Industry, a portion of the Vertical Track on Smart Cities, and a portion of the Topical Track on Communications and Networking.

The Virtual portion of the event will focus on daily sessions from 10:30am-12:30pm US Eastern Time, allowing for better access from remote locations. The Virtual Program Sessions will consist of prerecorded material for all Technical Peer Reviewed Papers but live speakers on-line for all other aspects of the conference.
All Exhibit participation will be conducted and accommodated virtually and available on-line for the duration of the conference. All Sponsorship signage will be included in the Face-Face as well as Virtual Session materials.
