What is I2I?

The IEEE Institute to Industry (I2I) Forum 2025 is an initiative of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) that bridges the gap between academia and industry — equipping students with industry insight, hands-on experience and networking opportunities to shape future-ready engineers.

Edition 4.0 was held at the Mangalore Institute of Technology & Engineering (MITE), Mangaluru, in collaboration with the IEEE Bangalore Section, with expert-led sessions, mock interviews and technical workshops.
