Meet, connect, and enjoy two special social events during IEEE MIPR 2026: the Welcome Reception at the conference hotel and the Conference Banquet at Jim Thompson Heritage Quarter.
Begin the conference in a relaxed and welcoming setting at Chatrium Grand Bangkok. The Welcome Reception offers attendees an opportunity to meet fellow researchers, reconnect with colleagues, and start new conversations before the main technical program. The reception will take place in the foyer immediately outside the ballroom, making it easy to join after arriving at the conference venue.
Compare taxi, BTS Skytrain, and walking options from Chatrium Grand Bangkok Hotel to Jim Thompson, A Thai Restaurant. BTS is recommended during the evening rush hour.
The banquet venue is a short walk from Chatrium Grand Bangkok Hotel. Use the live Google Maps route for the latest pedestrian directions and estimated travel time.
Inspired by the welcoming gatherings once hosted in Jim Thompson's Bangkok home, the restaurant celebrates Thailand's culinary heritage with contemporary interpretations of traditional flavors, crafted cocktails, and ingredients sourced from local producers. Jim Thompson textiles, vibrant colors, and Thai motifs shape the interiors, while peaceful outdoor seating overlooks the pond and garden of the heritage quarter.
