Many common questions about ISQGD memberships, conferences, ISQGD academic clubs, ISQGD Books, certificates, publications, volunteer opportunities, and other academic and educational activities are answered in our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
An Open Invitation to Our Global Academic Community
Organize an ISQGD Special Session or International Conference
We cordially invite our registered participants, previous speakers, colleagues, researchers, educators, and friends worldwide to submit proposals to organize a Special Session or International Conference under the auspices of the International Society for Quality Growth and Development (ISQGD).
ISQGD welcomes everyone, from every part of the world, to participate in its academic activities and propose events throughout the year.
We encourage academic initiatives from individuals and institutions across countries, regions, and disciplines. Proposals may be submitted at any time, and approved events may be scheduled on weekdays or weekends, according to mutually convenient dates and participant availability.
Share Ideas. Build Connections.
Propose focused research topics, emerging developments, interdisciplinary themes, or educational initiatives. Help scholars worldwide exchange knowledge and establish meaningful collaborations.
Organize with ISQGD Support.
ISQGD can assist with announcements, publicity, speaker registration, online meeting arrangements, scheduling, technical coordination, and related administration. Session organizers lead the academic program and speaker invitations.
To begin, send your proposed title, preferred dates, and a brief description of the academic scope to the ISQGD Chair or ISQGD Office. We will be pleased to review your proposal and discuss possible arrangements. Special Sessions may be held independently or as part of an ISQGD Conference.
How to propose an event: Select Submit an Event Proposal to open an email addressed to office@isqgd.org. The template asks for organizers’ names, affiliations (including country), and email addresses; a corresponding organizer; the proposed title and theme; preferred dates; and at least six potential speakers with affiliations. Speaker names may be tentative; please identify confirmed participants accurately. Complete the fields before sending.
The International Society for Quality Growth and Development (ISQGD) is committed to fostering scholarly excellence, academic inclusivity, meaningful intellectual exchange, and international collaboration.
Equal Academic Recognition
ISQGD values and respects every speaker’s scholarly contribution, regardless of academic rank, institutional affiliation, geographical location, or career stage. Every participant is welcomed as an important member of the international academic community.
No Formal Speaker Hierarchy
ISQGD generally does not distinguish speakers through traditional designations such as keynote, plenary, or distinguished talks. We believe that every scholar’s presentation deserves equal academic respect and recognition, and every speaker is an important part of our international academic gathering.
International Special Lectures
On special occasions, ISQGD may invite scholars to deliver an International Special Lecture, allowing additional time to explore significant mathematical or interdisciplinary ideas in depth and to engage thoughtfully with the audience. This designation describes a special lecture format and occasion; it does not create a hierarchy or diminish the academic standing of other presentations.
ISQGD believes that the true distinction of an academic gathering lies not in the titles assigned to its speakers, but in the quality of ideas shared, the advancement of knowledge, and the meaningful connections established among scholars worldwide.
International Special Lectures — Academic Excellence with Equal Recognition
At the International Society for Quality Growth and Development (ISQGD), every scholarly presentation is valued for the knowledge, ideas, and perspectives it brings to our international academic community.
Reflecting our commitment to equal academic recognition, ISQGD adopts “International Special Lecture” as its official designation in place of the traditional titles “Keynote Lecture,” “Plenary Lecture,” and “Distinguished Lecture” for future academic programs.
An International Special Lecture is a specially invited, extended presentation that allows a fuller exploration of important research, mathematical and scientific ideas, historical perspectives, educational developments, and interdisciplinary connections. It also creates space for thoughtful questions and scholarly discussion.
Usual duration: 60 minutes, including questions and discussion
This designation recognizes the purpose and extended format of a lecture, not a higher level of academic standing. Regular presentations and International Special Lectures alike are respected as meaningful contributions to knowledge, dialogue, and international collaboration.
Every Speaker Is Respected · Every Scholarly Contribution Is Valued · Every Academic Voice Matters.
ISQGD serves an international community, and many of its conferences, academic clubs, lectures, workshops, special sessions, meetings, and other online activities involve participants from multiple countries and time zones. Unless an activity-specific announcement states otherwise, U.S. Central Time (America/Chicago) is used as the standard reference time for ISQGD scheduling.
Whenever an ISQGD activity includes scheduled talks, sessions, or meetings, the official schedule will state the reference time clearly. Published talk and session schedules will also include appropriate local-time conversion information so that participants in different regions can identify the corresponding time in their location.
To facilitate meaningful participation across different parts of the world, ISQGD activities may be scheduled during both U.S. daytime and U.S. evening or nighttime hours, depending on the locations of speakers and participants. Activities taking place outside normal U.S. daytime hours may be coordinated and conducted by authorized ISQGD session coordinators or volunteers located in other regions of the world.
This distributed scheduling approach enables ISQGD to support international participation while maintaining a clear common reference time and consistent coordination across its global academic and educational activities.

The International Society for Quality Growth and Development (ISQGD), a U.S.-based, IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit international academic society, is pleased to present ISQGD–C03 — International Conference Celebrating the 139th Birth Anniversary of Srinivasa Ramanujan, to be held online December 20–23, 2026.
This gathering honors Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887–1920), the remarkable Indian mathematician whose originality and discoveries in number theory, integer partitions, infinite series, continued fractions, and related fields continue to inspire research across the world. Rooted in his extraordinary life and work, the celebration welcomes the exchange of mathematical ideas across cultures, generations, and disciplines.
The conference brings together primary, middle, and high school students, university students, educators, mathematicians, and researchers from around the world. The three school mathematics sessions encourage age-appropriate explanations, creative projects, and mathematical investigations, while the two research tracks provide opportunities for original research and carefully prepared expository talks. The program welcomes work inspired by Ramanujan as well as contributions in contemporary number theory and related areas within the announced themes. Participation is open internationally.
Purpose and International Significance
The four-day conference has three interconnected aims: to honor Ramanujan’s mathematical legacy, to encourage scholarly exchange and collaboration, and to inspire young learners and emerging mathematicians through mathematical ideas, history, and discovery.
Inspired by the universal reach of Ramanujan’s discoveries, ISQGD seeks to cultivate lasting academic relationships among researchers, educators, universities, and mathematical communities across national boundaries. The conference welcomes diverse mathematical perspectives and encourages respectful dialogue, shared learning, and collaboration.
At the heart of this celebration is December 22 — the Principal Commemorative Day, featuring an International Special Lecture Program of ten invited lectures honoring Ramanujan’s legacy and connecting scholars with learners around the world.
