The International Society for Productivity Enhancement (ISPE) was founded in 1984 in the USA with the goal to accelerate and augment the international exchange of ideas and scientific knowledge in the field of technological applications. The primary aim is to integrate technologies, strategies and resources to enhance productivity, competitiveness and thereby improve the quality and standard of life. ISPE has been promoting research and education by organising conferences, training workshops and seminars and various other professional activities.
