China Instrument and Control Society is the most leading academic organization of instrument and measurement control fields in China, which is main academic power that promotes instruments and apparatus and intelligent manufacturing, and also important academic power that develops the internet of things, smart cities and other emerging technologies. Based on important strategic meaning of the sensor technology and industries and clamant demands on the development of sensor industry in China, China Instrument and Control Society proposes the plan for holding the First World Sensors Summit in 2018 (for short: WSS), and bring it into the plan of activities in 2018 of the “Intelligent Sensor Innovation Alliance”. After being proposed, the plan of the Summit has been responded to actively by HenanProvincial Government and Zhengzhou Municipal Government, which provide lots of beneficial conditions for holding the first Summit in Zhengzhou.
