About ICACHI ​

International Chinese Association of Computer Human Interaction (ICACHI) was founded in 2012 during ACM CHI. It is the first international professional academic organization in human–computer interaction initiated by Chinese scholars worldwide.

The association brings together experts in human–computer interaction, AI, user experience, media, and design from eighteen countries and regions, promoting cross-regional academic cooperation and research and practice in technology for good.

About China Night ​

China Night is ICACHI's signature annual event during ACM CHI. It provides Chinese scholars worldwide with a platform for cross-cultural exchange and cooperation and builds a bridge for deeper dialogue between academia and industry.
