The International Conference on Bisexuality (ICB), also known as the International BiCon, is a periodic gathering of bisexualactivists and academics from around the world.
Started by Fritz Klein and a group of fellow activists, the first ICB was held in Amsterdam in 1991 and followed the concept of a BiCon started in the UK in 1984.
The event was held in the week prior to the 25th Stonewall Anniversary Parade. A large number of participants at the conference marched under an "International Bisexuals" banner in the parade.
This conference was hosted by the Toronto Bisexuality Education Project. It offered 57 workshops and included keynote addresses from Dr. Loraine Hutchins and researcher Trevor Jacques.
This event was held in combination with the UK'sBiCon 28. During the 9th ICB this was announced as being the 11th, however the 10th ICB had no immediate takers. Although work was then done on the issue, a planned conference in 2008 in Rhode Island, United States failed to get off the ground. The 2010 ICB in the United Kingdom was consequently the 10th.
