The inaugural Asia-Pacific Electromagnetic Compatibility (APEMC) Symposium was started in Singapore in 2008 due to the growing EMC research and development activities in the Asia-Pacific region. After several rotations in different countries, Singapore hosted APEMC the second time in 2012 and then the third time in 2018. In 2026, the IEEE EMC Society Singapore Chapter will organize the symposium again, but the venue will be in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur, an hour by flight from Singapore, is a vibrant city in South-East Asia that will offer our delegates a brand-new experience blending modern skyscrapers with cultural attractions, delicious food, and easy accessibility. We are pleased to have the strong support from IEEE RFID Council Malaysia as the Technical Co-Sponsor of the symposium, which signifies the strong tie between Singapore and Malaysia.
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we warmly welcome you to the APEMC 2026 in Kuala Lumpur. Since 2008, our delegates have made tremendous contributions in EMC research, design and teaching that result in great impacts in many sectors of society. With the ever-increasing demands of more powerful AI chips, more electric vehicles (EVs) on the road and more wireless connectivity, we expect new EMC problems that have not be considered in the past. This symposium in 2026 will be one for us to share our innovative thoughts and exchange novel ideas on how to chart our journey forward to reach new EMC solutions.
We have an exciting program that will allow members to reflect upon and celebrate our past accomplishments, renew friendships and extend our networks, and jointly explore current and future research directions. We hope that you will have a productive and fun‐filled time at this very special symposium.
