The Croatian Communications and Information Society (CCIS) started its membership in ComSoc’s Sister Society family in 2002.

In 2018 the actual Agreement between the CCIS and ComSoc was signed by N. Rozic, CCIS and K. B. Letaief, ComSoc president (coordinated by O. Dobre, director of Sister and Related Societies). Today, we are proud to say that CCIS has spent a really fruitful 15-year period in ComSoc’s Sister Society family, a great reason to continue advancing the collaboration with ComSoc and with other Sister Society members.
