Your products push the boundaries of physics. Your tools shouldn't hold you back. Today's products integrate technologies that barely existed two decades ago. Yet engineers often coordinate this complexity through software built in the 80's, outdated workflows, and platforms that restrict collaboration.
This gathering brings together the full stack of engineering innovation: investors betting on the future of technical tools, vendors building that future, and the technical leaders who need these solutions yesterday.
Join Engineering at the Frontier, where we confront an uncomfortable reality: while engineers design complex systems like rockets, autonomous robotics, and medical devices, most still wrestle with software from the desktop era in their daily jobs.
