Two editions · 2027
Why two editions in 2027?
Closer to more people.
Connected by the same community.
For 2027, the idea is simple: to make the ICGSM experience more accessible to professionals, companies and institutions interested in geotechnical and structural monitoring in different parts of the world.
In 2027, the South American Edition will open new opportunities for connections and knowledge sharing in Latin America. In 2027, Poppi will remain the historical home and heart of ICGSM, where our international community comes together, exchanges experiences and builds relationships year after year.
Both 2027 courses are open to attendees and exhibitors from anywhere in the world, regardless of geographic location.
The ICGSM experience
Learn from experts.
Connect through experience.
The course has brought together the people who design monitoring programmes, develop instruments and work with data in the field. Across its editions, learning has extended from lectures to demonstrations, exhibitions and site visits.
It is also a meeting point: a place to discuss a technical challenge, compare approaches and continue a conversation beyond the classroom.
Expert teaching
Methods, applications and lessons learned from monitoring professionals.
Technology & exhibition
Direct conversations with the people developing instruments and monitoring solutions.
Real projects & field experience
Case studies and opportunities to see monitoring in context.
An international community
Researchers, engineers and industry professionals learning from one another.
This describes the ICGSM experience across past editions. The programme and activities for each 2027 edition will be announced separately.
Beyond the event
The course brings us together.
The Academy keeps us connected.
ICGSM Academy builds on the course with new opportunities for education, technical exchange and knowledge sharing throughout the year.
