Abstract
The idea of a symposium to bring together the bright new talent within the SIGMM community and to hear their views on some topics within the area and on the future of Multimedia, was first mooted in 2014 by Shih-Fu Chang, then SIGMM Chair. That lead to the "Rising Stars Symposium" at the MULTIMEDIA Conference in 2015 where 12 invited speakers made presentations on their work as a satellite event to the main conference. After each presentation a respondent, typically an experienced member of the SIGMM community, gave a response or personal interpretation of the presentation. The format worked well and was very thought-provoking, though some people felt that a shorter event which could be more integrated into the conference, might work better.
