The 12th International Conference on Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composites in Civil Engineering (CICE 2025) will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from 14 to 16 July 2025. It is a national joint initiative organized by the University of Lisbon, the National Laboratory for Civil Engineering, and the University of Minho. CICE is the main official conference of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC). It brings together the FRP research community and industry to share relevant achievements and discuss challenges and opportunities in the field. This will be the twelfth edition of a series of prestigious conferences on composites for Civil Engineering applications that was initiated in 2001 and has been already taken place on most continents. CICE 2025 will serve as a premier platform for the global FRP research community and industry professionals to share significant advancements, address current challenges, and explore emerging opportunities in the field. The CICE2025 programme features a rich and diverse array of technical components, including: (i) keynote lectures by reputed speakers, including the recipients of the IIFC Medal and the IIFC Distinguished Young Researcher Award – a true highlight of the conference, offering transformative insights and inspiration; (ii) regular technical parallel sessions, showcasing the most recent research, development and field applications of FRP composites in civil engineering; (iii) special parallel sessions dedicated to emerging and specialized topics, designed to complement and enrich the regular programme; (iv) presentations from shortlisted candidates for the IIFC Best PhD Thesis Award, recognizing excellence in doctoral research; (v) the Student Benchmark Competition, focused on predicting the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with NSM-CFRP laminates; and (vi) the technical visits to the laboratories of Técnico and LNEC. At the end of the first day (14 July), we are delighted to invite you to the CICE 2025 Welcome Reception, hosted at the Técnico Innovation Centre. Join us for a relaxed evening of music, cocktails and conversation – a perfect opportunity for delegates to connect in a vibrant and informal setting. On the evening of the second day (15 July), we welcome you to the CICE 2025 Conference Dinner at the stunning SUD Lisboa Hall. The event begins with a welcome cocktail in a breathtaking setting overlooking the Tagus River and the iconic 25th of April Bridge, followed by a memorable dinner experience. Highlights of the evening include a live performance of Fado, Portugal's most iconic musical tradition, the IIFC Awards Ceremony and a closing musical moment to cap off an unforgettable evening of celebration and networking. Finally, the Organizing Committee wishes you a wonderful stay in Lisbon and hope that CICE 2025 exceeds your expectations - advancing your research, inspiring new ideas, fostering your cooperation with colleagues with mutual interests, meeting and making new friends.
