SIGMM is ACM¹s Special Interest Group on Multimedia supporting the
international community of researchers, practitioners, and students
dedicated to research and development of next-generation technologies
and applications of multimedia. We support the core principle of
inclusion in and open access to international scientific interaction,
and thus endorse the statements issued by ACM regarding Open Conference.

ACM Expresses Concern About New Executive Order Suspending Visas
Additionally, in view of the potential challenges for certain community
members to attend SIGMM conferences, we are exploring appropriate
multimedia solutions whenever feasible (such as video recording, remote
presentation, or remote participation) to mitigate potential
restrictions on in-person participation at the conferences.
We strongly encourage each and every multimedia community member to
continue active engagement in our vibrant community. For any further
questions, please review updates on this web site or feel free to
contact the conference organizers.
