Let’s Get This Party Started!
We also want to invite you to join us at the Welcome Reception, which will kick off the conference on Tuesday, April 5th starting at 6pm outside the Hyatt lobby in the pool area. As we continue to navigate back to our normal January time, we are going to play up the Spring Break vibe for a great evening of fellowship and face-to-face interactions.
The Technical Renaissance
The original Renaissance was a movement that covered about 300 years. The Technical Renaissance for Samtec is also a movement to higher speeds and products that will enable the products of the future. We use this theme to draw parallels to the advancements that took us from the dark ages to modern civilization. In today’s advancements, this may look like launching us to 5G, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Auto 2.0. These major industry evolutions are pushing data rates faster and faster. Stop by Booth 939 to see how we are staying ahead of the curve as we build products for 224 Gbps.
From Darkness to Light: The Renaissance Begins
Darkness to Light does not mean a full shift from copper to optics. It is not a reference to the current Covid plague versus the Black Death of the mid-1300s. For Samtec, this means evolving products and creating new solutions to go farther, faster. Samtec will be presenting multiple new demonstrations and products that will help you design systems at 112 Gbps, as well as set you up for 224 Gbps.
Products and Demos to be found will include:
Renaissance Geniuses
