About the Meeting
Asian Society for Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology (ASPEN) was organized as a union of academic and industrial societies in Asian nations andregions in order to promote network and collaboration of academic societies
and researchers in Asia. Conference will be held every two years.
ASPEN 2009 will be the third ASPEN conference, starting from the first
conference held in Shenzhen, China in 2005, and the second in Gwangju,
Korea in 2007. The fourth conference is scheduled to be held in Hong Kongin 2011.
The first two days of the three-day conference will be dedicated to technicalsessions focusing on ten technical fields. An exhibition will be held on thesame floor with the technical sessions. A field trip to nearby industrial plants
is scheduled on the third day.

Supporting Young Researchers’ Network
As Asia is becoming the new industrial zone in the world, ASPEN 2009 will
put special emphasis on supporting young researchers and their networks.
Strong relationships between researchers of the next generation is crucial tothe prosperity of Asian region. There will be a special session for young researchers to present their research activities and to exchange ideas for theirfuture collaboration.

Conference VenueASPEN 2009 conference site

The conference venue Kitakyushu is an international city with a populationof one million, located in Kyushu Island, which is the westernmost island ofthe four major islands that constitute Japan.
