If your company helps engineers build better products, we should talk.

At PDX, companies don’t just exhibit — they teach practical training at their booth. Engineers gain useful skills, and exhibitors build real relationships.

PDX 2026 is October 20–21 in Phoenix. Booths are first-come, first-served, and many are already reserved.
