The NW Electronics Design & Manufacturing Expo (NEDME) returns Wednesday, September 23, 2026, bringing the Pacific Northwest’s electronics and high-tech manufacturing community together for a practical day of learning, discovery, and connection.
For engineers, purchasing teams, entrepreneurs, manufacturers, and manufacturers’ representatives, it is a focused opportunity to explore what is next and leave with useful technical insight and new supplier relationships.
NEDME is designed to turn one day away from the office into practical momentum: exposure to technology options, conversations with capable regional partners, and ideas that can inform upcoming product, sourcing, and manufacturing decisions.
Attendees can meet exhibitors directly, attend technical breakout sessions, reserve their preferred sessions early, and build an itinerary around the topics most relevant to their work.
The event’s prior-year scale gives a sense of its value: NEDME reported 57 exhibitors, approximately 400 attendees, 22 speakers and presenters, and 18 breakout sessions. For 2026, the show is expected to feature more than 70 exhibitors (including MaRCTech2), giving visitors a concentrated way to assess solutions and build relationships across the electronics-manufacturing ecosystem.
NEDME 2026 pairs hands-on manufacturing and engineering perspectives with a timely focus on applied AI.
For MaRCTech2, NEDME is a natural setting to meet the people who influence technical purchasing, design-in decisions, supply-chain strategy, and manufacturing execution. We can engage visitors face-to-face around the challenges that matter most in the field:
A booth visit also creates a more productive starting point than a product catalog alone. Attendees can bring a current design challenge, sourcing concern, or production requirement to the MaRCTech2 team and begin a conversation about the right manufacturer resources and the path to a workable solution.
NEDME’s regional concentration of engineers, buyers, and technical decision-makers makes it an ideal venue for MaRCTech2 to strengthen existing relationships and form new ones.
Tickets are listed at $40 and include lunch, access to exhibitors, keynotes, and breakout sessions.
Early registrants receive first opportunity to reserve breakout sessions, which is particularly valuable for attendees who want to secure seats in high-interest technical programming.
Visit MaRCTech2 at NEDME 2026 on September 23 in Hillsboro, then spend the rest of the day exploring technologies, hearing from innovators, and making the connections that move the next project forward.
