[[Image:Idf 2007.jpg|thumb|The Fall 2007 Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco]]
The '''Intel Developer Forum''' ('''IDF''') was a biannual gathering of technologists to discuss [[Intel]] products and products based on Intel products. The first IDF was held in 1997.

To emphasize the importance of [[China]], the Spring 2007 IDF was held in [[Beijing]] instead of [[San Francisco]], and San Francisco and [[Taipei]] shared the Fall IDF event in September and October, respectively. Three IDF shows were scheduled in 2008; with the date of IDF San Francisco notably moving to August rather than September. In previous years, events were held in major cities around the world such as San Francisco, [[Mumbai]], [[Bangalore]], [[Moscow]], [[Cairo]], [[São Paulo]], [[Amsterdam]], [[Munich]] and [[Tokyo]].

On April 17, 2017, Intel announced that it would no longer be hosting IDF. As a result of this announcement, IDF17, which was scheduled for August in San Francisco, was canceled.<ref name=Announcement2017>{{cite web|url=http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intel-developer-forum-idf/san-francisco/2017/idf-2017-san-francisco.html|title=Resource & Design Center for Development with Intel|website=Intel.com|access-date=5 October 2018|archive-date=10 April 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170410071832/http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intel-developer-forum-idf/san-francisco/2017/idf-2017-san-francisco.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=Anandtech>{{cite web|url=http://www.anandtech.com/show/11279/intel-discontinues-the-intel-developer-forum-idf17-cancelled|title=Intel Discontinues the Intel Developer Forum; IDF17 Cancelled|first=Ryan Smith, Ian|last=Cutress|website=Anandtech.com|access-date=5 October 2018|archive-date=6 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181006075134/https://www.anandtech.com/show/11279/intel-discontinues-the-intel-developer-forum-idf17-cancelled|url-status=live}}</ref>
