3-1-3 | (2017-08-20) Interspeech 2017 update The preparations for Interspeech 2017 are in full swing! As you may have noticed, we had a serious virus attack to Interspeech 2017 website and it too us a while to restore it. The website is now up and running again, although with still some issues concerning links that are not yet completely operational, at this time. We have received a good number of proposals for Satellite Workshops as well as for Special Sessions and Challenges and we are working on the schedules and logistic details. We can announce that co-registration will be possible. Participants will be able to select participation in Satellite Workshops and pay the registration fee in connection with the registration for Interspeech 2017. The organizers of satellite events will be in touch with our PCO to get information on the registered participants and the universities involved in the satellite events will request from our PCO transfers of the events’ registration amounts. Except for the credit card fee (about 2 %), we do not expect any other costs for the organizers of the satellite events. Sponsorships and exhibition requests are dropping in, which is a very good sign. We have started a Facebook page and taken over a Twitter account for Interspeech 2017. There is still some work to be done to activate properly those social media but we are working on it. The three main Interspeech 2017 partners, Stockholm University, KTH and Karolinska Institute are coordinating efforts to make the conference a success and are deeply involved in the planning. To the good news, we can add that Stockholm University will not be charging Interspeech 2017 for the lecture halls or use of other spaces at the university and KTH/TMH will be hosting the Technical Committee meeting in May. Meanwhile, we are having regular planning meetings involving Stockholm University’s representatives of various infrastructures, like wifi, media services, restaurants and cafeterias, security, etc. and working hard to make sure that Interspeech 2017 will flow as smoothly and effectively as possible. See you in Stockholm in August! Francisco Lacerda

3-1-8 | Interspeech 2017 Update 2017-06-05 The Stockholm team continues preparing for InterSpeech 2017 in August 20-24. Following on the TPC’s intensive review work to handle the 1532 submissions to InterSpeech 2017, we are now dealing with the logistics of scheduling the 797 accepted regular contributions as well as about 40 additional Show & Tell presentations. Registration for InterSpeech 2017 requires an ISCA membership valid during the conference (i.e. 20-24 August 2017) and “InterSpeech 2017 + ISCA membership packages” will be updated within the next couple of days. It will offer integrated options for the simultaneous payment of both registration and ISCA membership fees. Renewing the ISCA membership via the InterSpeech 2017 website is already possible but we are working to make the payment process smoother. Note however, that all the payments must be in SEK and that they will include a service fee. Short announcements and updates concerning InterSpeech 2017 are also published via http://stockholmuniversityphonetics.com and linked to Facebook, Twitter and Google + Welcome to Stockholm!

3-1-9 | Interspeech 2017 Stockholm ( update July)
InterSpeech 2017 is approaching rapidly and the Stockholm team is working to ensure a positive and giving experience to all participants. Lots of work, lots of fun and we look forward to have you all here in Stockholm! Following the trend of recent InterSpeech conferences, the interest for InterSpeech 2017 is also very high. We are extremely glad and proud of this high number of registrations (that still is increasing) and will make sure to find the best possible solutions to deal with this very welcome large demand. For instance, we will provide a live streaming of plenary sessions from Aula Magna to an additional lecture hall to make sure that everybody can participate and interact with the keynote speakers. Large, non-plenary, sessions will also be held in Aula Magna, where there will be enough space for all the participants. We also want to make sure to include all the participants in the social activities that you have signed up for so we are working with solutions to increase the capacity of the events and considering attractive parallel alternatives, if the event’s capacity cannot be expanded. This work is in progress and must be done based on the demand, so we expect to announce all the solutions by the first week in August. About two weeks before InterSpeech 2017, all registered participants will receive an e-mail with practical instructions and information regarding the registration procedure, options and other details. Short announcements and updates concerning InterSpeech 2017 are also published via http://stockholmuniversityphonetics.com and linked to Facebook, Twitter and Google + Have a nice trip to Stockholm and enjoy InterSpeech 2017!
