The ICEE aims to provide a forum for sharing knowledge, experience and creative ideas among electrical engineers worldwide and contribute to technical developments in electrical engineering. The conference was first initiated in 1994 with a "Tokyo Declaration" signed by Ir Otto Poon and other representatives from Korea, Japan and China whose institutions take turn to host the conference. These institutions are the Chinese Society for Electrical Engineering, the Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

ICEE was held in Korea (95), China (96), Japan (97), Korea (98), Hong Kong (99), Japan (00), China (01), Korea(02), Hong Kong (03), Japan(04), China (05), Korea (06). During ICEE 2000 in Japan, our delegates participated in the Representative Meeting to agree on the "ICEE Management Outline" to set the objectives and future organising arrangement for ICEEs.
