Why You Should Not Miss OctoberBest

Nowadays, when one goes to a tradeshow, they attach this connotation of expecting to pay a little too much to view things that are readily available on the web.  With the 2013 OctoberBest Expo though, they should expect so much more.

Tektronix 6_10The 13th Annual OctoberBest Expo will be held on October 2nd, 2013 at  Tektronix located in Beaverton, Oregon.  The Expo features keynote speakers such as Cheryl Kennedy and Rob Rowland.  The event will deliver a viable historical overview from engineers who were part of that history and attendees will have the opportunity to hear how our NW industry got started. There will be a display of historical Tek products dating back some 40 years. The booth will be staffed by engineers who were there and who personally designed these products.

What sets this event apart from others is the fact that attendees can see a myriad of local NW manufacturers, everything from metal and plastic manufacturing to cable assemblies and board stuffing and manufacturing- but also vendors who will consider you important.  The IEEE tech sessions will present new technologies for uC to uC communications.  This Expo will also give attendees the opportunity to renew acquaintances with colleagues as well as meeting new potential vendors along with partners and customers.
