About the conference

International Conference on Cognitive Science (ICCS 2026)

International Conference on Cognitive Science (ICCS-2026) is a prestigious event organised to provide an excellent international platform for academicians, researchers, engineers, industrial participants and budding students around the world to share their research findings with global experts. ICCS-2026 will be held in Khamis Mushait, Saudi Arabia on 1 December 2026.

The key intention of ICCS-2026 is to give participants from around the world the opportunity to share their ideas and experience in person with their peers. The gathering also helps delegates to establish research or business relations and to find international links for future collaboration. We hope that the outcome of ICCS-2026 will make a significant contribution to the knowledge base of these up-to-date scientific fields.

The conference is organised by Science Guru. It offers invited lectures from renowned speakers, and best paper awards are given to the papers judged to make the most significant contribution to the conference.

Earlier Science Guru conferences were held in London (UK), Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Jakarta, Bali, Batam, Bangkok, Paris, Istanbul, Melbourne (Australia), Pattaya, Phuket, Manila, Hong Kong, Johannesburg (South Africa), Phnom Penh (Cambodia), Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
