Between the technical sessions and keynote presentations, attendees are gaining insight directly from the people driving innovation and setting direction across the electronics ecosystem.
DesignCon 2026: From Copper to Quantum to Agentic AI

For me, though, DesignCon is the big game, where our industry’s MVPs take the field to show how fast the technology playbook is evolving.
