The first ISF was held in 1981 in Quebec, Canada, and the most recent one was held virtually in 2020. The ISF generally takes place in June/July. The policy is to alternate each year’s location between North America and the rest of the world, to reflect the international member demographics of our organization.

Upcoming:

ISF 2022: Oxford, United Kingdom | July 8-13
ISF 2023: Beijing, China | June 25-28
