The Global Congress on Microwave Energy Applications (5GCMEA) is the international conference for scientists, researchers and engineers working on the fields on microwave and RF energy applications and their glowing relevant fields. The GCMEA is cooperatively organized by International Federation of Associations in the Field of Microwave and RF Power Engineering (MAJIC), composed of Microwave Working Group (MWG, USA), Association for Microwave Power in Europe for Research and Education (AMPERE Europe), Japan Society of Electromagnetic Wave Energy Applications (JEMEA, Japan), International Microwave Power Institute (IMPI, USA) and China Association of Microwave Power Applications (CAMPA, China). The 1st GCMEA was held in Otsu, Japan in 2008, the 2nd was in California, USA in 2012, the 3rd was in Cartagena, Spain, in 2016, and the 4th was in Chengdu, China in 2022. Now, we are starting to organize to host the 5th GCMEA is held in Fukuoka, Japan, during July 22 -25, 2024.

　Instead of the JEMEA Annual Symposium, which is held every year, we have planned a "JEMEA Session" as a session within GCMEA. During this session, in addition to the usual English presentations, it is also possible to give presentations in Japanese, so we are accepting a large number of entries from a wide range of fields, including young people from Japan. There are already many papers and exhibits from all over the world, and you can experience the cutting edge of microwave technology. We hope to see you in Fukuoka in July.
