Expressions of Interest Deadline: November 14, 2025 at 5:00pm EDT (New York Time) If you are interested in learning more, please contact ISPA CEO, David Baile at dbaile@ispa.org. 
Who Should Submit an Expression of Interest?The congress locations tend to rotate around the globe and expressions of interest from all regions are welcome. In soliciting international congress locations ISPA initially requests a Letter of Interest (LOI). The LOI is reviewed by ISPA's Program Committee (a standing committee of the Board) and a recommendation is made to the Board of Directors. |
