This the second session of the WIE Synergy series. Through an engaging fireside chat, this event brings together visionary leaders from diverse regions to share insights on bridging geographical and cultural gaps, fostering inclusive leadership, and driving impactful initiatives
Let's talk about what research shows but few discuss openly: failure hits differently depending on who you are and where you work. The double standards are real, the stakes can feel higher, and the path back often feels steeper than it should. But you can change that narrative. This transformative session reveals why we internalize failure differently and provides the tools to turn setbacks from career-ending events into career-defining moments. You'll learn the 3Gs framework (Ground, Gather, Go!) for bouncing back stronger while staying authentic. Whether you're navigating your first major setback or supporting someone through theirs, walk away with strategies to reframe failure, build genuine resilience, and create cultures where people can take smart risks without facing outsized consequences.

While Large Language Models have advanced rapidly, building reliable production-grade systems around them remains a complex engineering challenge. In this webinar, Anni Chen introduces a systems-driven framework for deploying LLMs in real-world environments. The session explores how to identify high-impact use cases, design retrieval-augmented architectures, navigate latency and cost trade-offs, and establish continuous evaluation and feedback loops. Drawing on experience with large-scale deployments, the talk emphasizes disciplined engineering, responsible AI practices, and scalable infrastructure. It offers a practical blueprint for turning powerful models into dependable, measurable business systems.
Join IEEE WIE and the IEEE Systems Council for an engaging panel discussion featuring global women leaders from academia and industry. This session explores how education, innovation, and leadership drive sustainable development, offering real-world insights, inspiring leadership journeys, and practical guidance for women pursuing careers in engineering and technology.
AI is rapidly transforming the science of coding, automating simulation and analysis at unprecedented speed. As technical tasks become increasingly AI-driven, long-term career impact shifts toward uniquely human skills. In this talk, Anu Ramamurthy—Associate Fellow of Design at Microchip Technology—explores three essential pillars of modern leadership: situational awareness, adaptive communication, and cross‑disciplinary synthesis. Drawing from over 25 years in the semiconductor industry, she shares insights on how these capabilities empower leaders to navigate complex work environments and drive innovation beyond what AI alone can achieve.
Explore innovative RF design solutions for ultra-low-power wireless sensor and communication nodes that reduce battery eco-toxicity, lower maintenance costs, and minimize carbon footprints. Learn how system-on-chip and RFID technologies enable sustainable digitalization.
This the fourth session of the WIE Synergy series. Through an engaging fireside chat, this event brings together visionary leaders from diverse regions to share insights on bridging geographical and cultural gaps, fostering inclusive leadership, and driving impactful initiatives
Does AI keep you up at night? Wondering how to stay relevant as your role evolves? In this interactive career‑focused session, we’ll examine how engineers navigated major technological disruption during the rise of simulation tools in the 80s and 90s—and what those lessons can teach us today. Through discussion and real‑world examples, participants will identify transferable skills, career strategies, and practical steps to confidently position themselves for growth in the age of AI.
This talk presents a wireless power transfer system that dynamically tracks and realigns an electromagnetic beam to reliably power small, deeply implanted medical devices as they move. Unlike conventional near‑field methods requiring fixed alignment, the approach maintains energy delivery and supports simultaneous data communication. The session also outlines the path from theory to experimental validation and highlights applications in implantable devices, robotics, and related fields.
