PEACHTREE CITY, GA – Registration for the PCB East 2023 conference and exhibits rose 59% overall from last year, the Printed Circuit Engineering Association announced today.

Conference registration more than doubled, rising 110% from last year, while the expo-only trade show registration rose 63% over the same period.

The annual trade show was held May 9 to 12 at the Boxboro Regency Hotel and Conference Center in Boxborough, MA. In all, more than 60 leading suppliers of electronics design tools, manufacturers of bare boards and assemblies, and suppliers of fabrication and assembly equipment and materials exhibited at the show.

“We couldn’t be more pleased with the turnout for PCB East 2023,” said Mike Buetow, conference director and president, PCEA. “Attendees spoke highly of the quality and breadth of the presentations, and noted that they often had to make tough choices on which classes to attend.”

Exhibitors agreed the show is filling a need for the vibrant New England market.

“Great show!” said Bob Burns, VP sales and marketing, All Flex Solutions, Inc. “Well attended and we found some really good prospective customers, and uncovered two new materials as a bonus!"

“Great show!” echoed Claire Jamieson, marketing manager, NCAB Group. “This is our first exhibition since prior to the pandemic and it was an excellent opportunity to catch up with some familiar and new faces."

PCEA said plans for PCB East 2024 will be announced shortly.
