The Engineering Design Show (EDS) returns to The Coventry Building Society Arena on the 11th – 12th of October 2023, bringing together thousands of design engineers to source, learn and network.

Expect to discover 200+ exhibitors, thousands of the latest innovations and products and 30+ hours of free-to-attend conference sessions and workshops. Plus, don't miss the dedicated robotics zone, an interactive VR display with Nottingham Trent University, 'The EDS Race to Place' games area (and a chance to win some fantastic prizes) and the end-of-day-one party, where all visitors, exhibitors and speakers are invited for free food, refreshments and live music!

There are so many huge names attending, with confirmed headline sponsors, Powell Electronics, Würth Electronics and Solid State Supplies. Dassault Systèmes are also sponsoring a new lounge area, creating a relaxing, networking space for visitors. Plus, we are pleased to welcome Mouser Electronics, Silicon Motion, Arrival Electronics and AWE, all sponsors for this year's show.

THE EXHIBITION – WORLD-CLASS SOLUTION PROVIDERS

Meet with over 200 world-class suppliers, representing the very best of engineering design. The packed exhibition hall will feature the latest technologies, materials, tools, software and services enabling visitors to source products and review supply chains.
Thousands of new products and innovations will be on display across the full mechanical, embedded and electronics landscape, including 3D printing, fasteners and adhesives, design software, drives and controls, embedded systems, labelling, laser making, motion control, PCB manufacture and assembly and many more. EDS provides a dynamic environment in which to interact with these suppliers, all under one roof at one time.

CONFERENCE and WORKSHOPS – LEARNING, BENCHMARKING AND DEVELOPMENT

EDS has three conference streams that will run in parallel across the two days. Curated by the editors of the industry-leading titles The Engineer, New Electronics and Eureka!, and drawing on a combined 340+ years of engineering journalism and insight, the three streams will deliver multiple case studies and practical sessions that address the key opportunities and challenges facing UK design engineers.
Topics that will be covered include, AI for Design; Robotics; Sustainability in Design; Standards and Compliance; Advanced Materials; PCB Design, IoT Cybersecurity and much more! The 30+ sessions will provide a perfect setting for inspiration, learning and debate.
Visitors can also join practical, exhibitor-led, workshop sessions that will be taking place across two separate theatres. The workshops are a brilliant opportunity to see the latest design innovation in action and put your questions to the experts.
