[Infovis] [VPG] Registration Open: Annual IEEE VGTC VPG Reception at IEEE VIS

[Dr. L. Miguel Encarnacao]

### Please distribute as appropriate

To avoid long lines and corresponding delays on the evening of the
Visualization Pioneers Group reception, as well as to get a better
headcount for planning purposes, *we strongly encourage attendees to take
advantage of the online registration* available through
http://vacommunity.org/ieeevpg/reception/  .

The IEEE Visualization Pioneers Group (VPG) will like in past years host
its member-exclusive reception on Monday evening of the IEEE VIS conference
week, on *October 22, 2018, starting at 7:00 pm.*
To become a member of the VPG, one simply needs to have at least *20 years
of contributions to some aspect of visualization and visual analytics*.

If that applies to you and you plan to attend the next VPG reception at
VIS, we encourage you to join VPG or renew your membership as soon as
possible, so that we can have a more accurate head count for the reception.

For more information on how to join VPG and to attend the VPG reception,
please see http://vacommunity.org/ieeevpg/reception/


On behalf of the VPG operating committee,

Dr. L. Miguel Encarnação
Innovation Management Executive & Consultant
Professor of Practice, Tippie College of Business
Prof. (Adj.) of Computer Science, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
