As part of IEEE VIS’s ongoing unification effort, we have one unified VSC now with seven members consolidated from the old VSC and VEC. This year, we will have 1 new community-elected member and 1 new nominated/appointed member. These elections give the community a voice in governance, allow community members to grow into positions of authority, and will hopefully ensure a diverse representation across all of VIS. For more details about the elections process, see the IEEE VIS Charter.
Register to Vote
Any person who has contributed to the VIS conference in some capacity (including attending, authoring, speaking, organizing, or providing financial support) in at least one previous conference year is considered eligible to vote. (However, participating for the first time in 2026 won’t confer eligibility until 2026). All registered voters from the previous year, including those who selected to register at the time of conference registration in 2025, will be automatically registered to vote, and new eligible voters can register by completing the form:
