7^th International Conference on IoT, Blockchain & Cloud Computing (IBCOM 2026)

September 19 ~ 20, 2026, Copenhagen, Denmark

Scope & Topics

The 7^th International Conference on IoT, Blockchain & Cloud Computing (IBCOM 2026) provides a premier international forum for researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to share their latest findings in the theory, methodology, and applications of Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain technologies, and Cloud Computing systems. As these three domains continue to converge and evolve, they form the foundation of next generation distributed platforms that power smart environments, digital economies, and large scale intelligent infrastructures.

The conference welcomes original research articles, case studies, industrial experiences, and comprehensive survey papers that highlight significant progress, novel insights, and impactful applications.

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that illustrate cutting edge results, real world implementations, experimental evaluations, and visionary concepts in any of the conference’s core areas. Submissions may address, but are not limited to, the topics listed.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following

• Next generation IoT architectures
