Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our great pleasure to invite you to the 11th International Conference on High Temperature Ceramic Matrix Composites (HT-CMC 11), which will be held at the Ramada Plaza Jeju Hotel in Jeju, Korea from August 27 to 31, 2023.

Since the inaugural meeting at Bordeaux, France in 1993, the International Conference on High Temperature Ceramic Matrix Composites has been held in celebrated places around the world; including Santa Barbara (1995), Osaka (1998), Munich (2001), Seattle (2004), New Delhi (2007), Bayreuth (2010), Xi'An (2013), Toronto (2016), and Bordeaux (2019). Continuing with this rich tradition and success, the 11th conference will be held in Jeju, Korea.

The conference aims to provide opportunities for researchers and engineers from around the world to present their works and share their ideas in the field of High Temperature Ceramic Matrix Composites. Significant advancements in all aspects of research, development, and applications shall be covered within technical presentations and posters. Another aim of the conference is to enhance the relationships between member societies and provide a venue for friends and colleagues to share common goals of research, development, and application in this important field of materials.

The venue of HT-CMC 11 is Jeju, a beautiful volcanic resort island. Each year more than 6.5 million people visit Jeju to enjoy its exotic natural beauty, local culture and various leisure activities. As chairman of HT-CMC 11, we are certain that HT-CMC 11 will be a memorable experience for you both on personal and professional grounds.

The global pandemic of COVID-19 is yet to be curbed, but we opted for a physical conference as a way of renewing the bonds that bring together a scholarly community that are difficult to achieve through various online tools and virtual conferences. We strongly believe that HT-CMC conferences are more than merely occasions for presentation of research findings.

We are confident that HT-CMC 11 will offer more to see, learn, and experience than ever before, and we invite you to create unforgettable memories here in Korea.
