• Providing the researchers in India the opportunity to present their results at a conference of the stature of a state-of-the-art international conference in the microwave field.
• Creating a forum for the presentation of selective, high quality research work in India.
• Helping develop the skills of local researchers at preparing their results for dissemination through international conferences and journals

The conference continues to enjoy its stature as the foremost conference in India in its FOI, and maintains its tradition of emphasis on high quality in paper selection presentation.  IMaRC continues to draw premier research results and presenters from India and abroad, through several means:

• It adheres to an international standards of peer-review, by inviting world-class researchers from around the world to serve on the paper review selection, with a majority of reviewers in a review panels drawn from outside India.
• It is selective in its acceptance of papers for presentation, accepting only about two-thirds of the already self-selected submissions.
• It facilitates the retrieval of presented research reports both through the IEEE Xplore data base, and by publishing an extended version of best of the submitted papers in a Special Issue of the IEEE Trans. Microwave Theory & Techniques.   
• It continues to be actively managed by the Meetings and Symposia Committee of the MTT-S, which appoints the conference Executive Committee and the annual Steering Committees, and designate MTT-S representatives serving as the Chairs of technical paper selection and managing committees of IMaRC.

  The conference is accompanied with an exhibition that brings the latest developments in instrumentation, software, and turn-key systems to the attention of the attendees.  There are also a number of concurrent activities to encourage the participation and training of students, and humanitarian applications of the RF and microwave technologies, and several IEEE MTT-S volunteer meetings are co-located with IMaRC functions.
