Get year-round exposure.
Selected speakers can be featured across Sensors Converge and Fierce Sensors channels before and after the event.

Grow your network.
Connect with engineering leaders, startups, technology suppliers, investors and innovators from across the ecosystem.

 

WHAT MAKES A STRONG SUBMISSION?

We're looking for sessions that:

  • Teach engineers something they can apply
  • Share a real-world design challenge and how it was solved
  • Reveal new research, technology or engineering approaches
  • Explore emerging technologies shaping intelligent systems
  • Include meaningful technical depth—not a sales pitch
  • Present original content attendees can't easily find elsewhere

Tip: The strongest submissions clearly explain what attendees will learn and how they'll be able to apply it.
