On January 29–30, 2026, a landmark event for our scientific community took place — the V International Scientific and Practical Conference "Latest Technological Trends of Smart Industry and the Internet of Things", where our institute acted not only as an active participant but also as a co-organizer. This large-scale event was the result of the successful implementation of Memorandums of Cooperation between the State University of Trade and Economics, Luhansk National University named after Taras Shevchenko, Al-Rafidain University College (Baghdad, Iraq), and the University of the National Education Commission (Krakow, Poland).
The grand opening of the conference on January 29 was marked by inspiring speeches from the Rector of LNU named after Taras Shevchenko, Professor Olena Karaman, and the Rector of Al-Rafidain University College, Dr. Mahmoud Jawad Abu Al-Shaer. The professional discussion, moderated by Professor Yuriy Khlaponin and Dr. Namir Qasim, was conducted exclusively in English, highlighting the global status of the event. The geography of the speakers spanned the entire world: from Canadian cybersecurity expert Adam Asher (Stream Security, Toronto) and Polish professors Marek Aleksander and Anna Korchenko to representatives of leading Ukrainian universities — KAI, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, and SUTE.



The high quality of the submitted materials from participants representing Ukraine, the United Kingdom, Canada, Poland, Iraq, and Slovakia confirmed the relevance of the chosen topics. Following the conference, selected papers will traditionally be published in proceedings indexed by the Scopus database.
