Altium to Host 2nd Annual "AltiumLive" PCB Design Summit

Altium announced its 2nd annual PCB Design Summit. AltiumLive 2018 will provide a unique opportunity for thought leaders and practitioners in PCB design, manufacturing, and component supply chain to connect and collaborate on how the electronics industry can establish a more connected design to realization experience.

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 28, 2018 — (PRNewswire) —

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Altium today announced that its 2nd annual PCB Design Summit will take place in San Diego on October 4-5, 2018. AltiumLive 2018 will build upon last year's successful user event to provide PCB design professionals with a host of opportunities to expand their engineering knowledge and design skills through live workshops, professional development courses, industry keynote speakers, and previews of new Altium products. Additionally, AltiumLive 2018 will provide a unique opportunity for thought leaders and practitioners in PCB design, manufacturing, and component supply chain to connect and collaborate on how the electronics industry can establish a more connected design to realization experience.

"One of the biggest challenges in the electronics industry is product realization — the process of getting from an idea to a physical printed circuit board — in large part because component availability and manufacturing line capabilities are only discovered after a design is complete," said Ted Pawela, Chief Operating Officer at Altium. "Our intent with AltiumLive, and with our software, is to improve electronics product design and realization by better connecting the design, manufacturing, and supply chain domains."

This year's 2-day summit will feature keynote presentations from industry leaders, including Eric Bogatin, Rick Hartley, Bil Herd, and Jeremy Blum, professional development courses offering immersive training and in-depth industry insights, and ample opportunity to network with peers and supply chain providers. Altium will also unveil key product launches including Altium Designer® 19, and the latest release of Altium NEXUS®. In addition, this year's conference will feature an optional University Day filled with hands-on training in Altium Designer, and a parallel full-day course in high-speed design taught by leading authority, Lee Ritchey.

"There's just so much content here, the content is very relevant, and it's well done," said Tara Dunn, President of Omni PCB about last year's AltiumLive PCB design conference. "There's high energy in the event, it's fast paced, and everyone was saying what a great value it's been." Added Happy Holden, the "Father" of HDI, "I haven't attended a designer conference like this in a long time."

The AltiumLive: Annual PCB Design Summit in North America and Europe was inspired by and designed specifically for the electronics design community. Altium seeks to create a platform where PCB designers and members of the entire electronics value chain can come together to collaborate on industry trends, best practices, and practical solutions to their challenges.
