From 14th to 16th December 2014, the International Conference of Global Network for Innovative Technology 2014 (IGNITE2014) was held in co-sponsorship with the Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), and Toyohashi Tech with the objective of announcing advanced research results of various fields of applied technology.
This was the second time it was held, with the first conference being held last year to coincide with the opening of our university's Malaysian education base.

In addition to researchers and students from USM, there were many participants from multinational corporations doing business in Penang. As a result, a total of more than 100 people attended, including researchers and students from Japan.

On the 14th, the day before the conference, an opening ceremony was held at the Hotel Jen Penang.
