Upgrading to the “Expo Pass Plus” for $200, less any discounts such as IEEE Membership, will add the Conference Proceedings and a 3 classes.

The conference is described as:

DESIGN West is the world’s only technical conference and expo for electronics design engineers, entrepreneurs, and technology professionals who create products with electronic content.

Held in the heart of Silicon Valley, it is where the world’s top design engineers and product developers gather and learn, gain inspiration, and get practical information and hands-on training they can put to immediate use.

Launched in 2012, the four-day DESIGN West event builds upon the solid foundation of engineering education pioneered by the Embedded Systems Conference (ESC). Celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2013, ESC is joined by popular design summits including Black Hat and the Android Certification Program.

The conference features over 150 technical lectures, panels, tutorials, certification programs, and hands-on training sessions taught by the industry’s top experts on the most relevant software, hardware, and systems design topics and tools for creating great products

If you are considering attending, here are just a few reasons the organizers think this is the west coast conference for the spring:

  • You’ll hone your skills in embedded design and learn about the latest software, hardware, and tools for engineers
  •  You’ll learn about the latest development boards and tools enabling quick and pain-free prototyping and deployment
  •  You’ll gain insight into the entire product design cycle – from concept through to production – direct from engineers who have successfully navigated their way through the challenges
  •  You’ll acquire skills in areas that are new to you through our Tech Fundamentals sessions
  •  You’ll get your hands on the actual hardware and development boards in our hands-on training sessions and Hands-on Speed Training sessions on the expo floor
  •  You’ll gain insight from our product teardowns, running throughout the day during expo hours
  •  You’ll learn from other engineers who are coping with similar challenges and gain insight into their trade-off analysis and decision-making process
  •  And you’ll be able to put everything you learned to immediate use

If the east coast venues, or fall conference dates, better suit your schedule then consider attending DESIGN East .
