Call for Papers and IHMA Awards Nominations

The Holography Conference™ is the only global forum for the commercial holography industry – and has tracked every new development in holography since 1990.

After a successful run of 30 years in the physical world, the 2020 event went online – delivering a new and invigorated format as The Holography Conference Online (THCO), which proved to be so successful that it has continued through to 2023.

The Call for Papers is now open, and delegates are invited to submit a proposal.

Papers may cover all commercial developments and aspects of holography in authentication, brand protection, art and security; packaging and printing; LED screens, HOEs and solar panels; wearables; digital interactivity of holograms, nano- and micro-structures, and alternative light-control applications, as well as developments in hologram origination and production or any novel and innovative future applications for holograms.

If you would like to submit a paper, please send a 200-word abstract by 29 September 2023 to Micaal Sidorov [email protected].

Running in tandem with TCHO are the Excellence in Holography awards, presented annually by the International Hologram Manufacturers Association (IHMA) to outstanding holographic projects for the year.

Sponsored by Holography News®, the awards are presented at the conclusion of THCO for holographic products or techniques introduced over the previous year which represent the best in the industry for innovation and commercial potential. As such, they recognise outstanding achievement and spotlight those who are at the forefront of the sector.

Any company or individual is eligible to enter – not only IHMA members. There is a cap of two nominations per organisation per category, of which there are five. The same nomination can be submitted for more than one category.

To be considered for the award, submit your nomination before 15 October to ihma.awardsplatform.com.
