SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 23, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DesignCon, the nation’s largest event for chip, board and systems design engineers, featuring over 175+ premier exhibitors, today announced six prominent companies will be featured in the Product Showcase presenting their latest industry advancements, along with five notable exhibitors that will debut new products and services at this year’s event. Product Showcase serves to provide a curated audience a closeup look at new, improved solutions via 15-minute live product demonstrations. DesignCon will take place Jan. 29 – 31, 2019, at the Santa Clara Convention Center. To register as press, please visit: designcon.tech.ubm.com/2019/registrations/Media.

“The Product Showcase offers the unique opportunity for media, attendees and exhibitors alike to interact with the leading engineering and system design companies’ innovations in an intimate setting,” said Suzanne Deffree, Brand Director, Intelligent Systems and Design, UBM. “The unmatched quality of exhibitors announcing their cutting-edge products and services is a massive value-add, creating an environment where industry professionals can learn more efficient solutions and techniques from their peers to bring back to their daily work.”

As DesignCon strives to provide the highest quality educational sessions to thousands of attendees each year, the organizers want to give back to its extraordinary community—especially those who have been affected by the recent devastating California fires. Help DesignCon make a difference to raise money for the California Fire Foundation. It’s a cause close to many members of the DesignCon community, with some of our long-time attendees and exhibitors personally impacted by the 2018 wildfires. DesignCon appreciates your help and will match up to $3,000 in donations made by January 31, 2019, through this campaign. The final tally will be announced on the DesignCon website in early February. Any donation will help make an impact. Please consider donating at this GoFundMe link here.
