The ACM SIGGRAPH Practitioners Sessions are an in-person sessions for practitioners at the SIGGRAPH 2023 to have discussions, with like-minded peers, on professional development in our industries, including but not limited to different approaches to creating and scoping engineering projects, developing tech stacks, and identifying opportunities for taking research to practice and the productization journey thereof. Please check SIGGRAPH 2023 web page for registration categories.
The ACM SIGGRAPH Practitioner Sessions are organized by the ACM SIGGRAPH Practitioner Career Development Committee (PCDC), whose directive is to plan, develop, and facilitate activities that support the career development of computer graphics and interactive techniques practitioners across different industries worldwide, in conjunction with relevant entities, standing bodies, and committees associated with ACM SIGGRAPH and the SIGGRAPH conferences.
The ACM SIGGRAPH Practitioner Development Committee welcomes any updates or suggestions for programmes, proceedings, sessions, meet-ups, and other activities that would benefit and broaden SIGGRAPH's activities for industry practitioners. Please don't hesitate to send your feedback on how we can improve our services.
