2025 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (IEEE BigData 2025)

Dates: December 8-11, 2025
Location: Macau SAR, China

Welcome!

In recent years, Big Data has become a new ubiquitous term, transforming science, engineering, medicine, healthcare, finance, business, and ultimately our society. The IEEE Big Data conference series, started in 2013, has established itself as a top-tier research conference in Big Data.

The IEEE Big Data 2023 (regular paper acceptance rate: 17.4%) was held at Sorrento, Italy, with close to 950 registered participants from 50 countries. The IEEE Big Data 2024 had over 1300 registered participants from 53 countries.

The 2025 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (IEEE BigData 2025) will continue the success of the previous conferences, providing a leading forum for disseminating the latest results in Big Data Research, Development, and Applications.
