The event will expand over five days July 20 – 24. All DAC sessions are scheduled for Pacific Daylight Time. Once the session day and time has occurred, the session will be available for on demand access any day and time zone until August 1, 2020
More than 60 companies will be exhibiting at virtual DAC 2020, including long-time participants such as Cadence Design Systems, Mentor, a Siemens Business and Synopsys. All exhibitors will be showcasing their latest technology advances for the electronic design industry through videos and live Zoom sessions. The live chat and face-to-face interactive exhibit meetings will be held Monday – Wednesday, July 20 – 22 from 10:30 A.M. - 1:30 P.M. PDT. Attendees may visit exhibitor virtual booths throughout the duration of the event and request private meetings or information.
Rob van Blommestein, DAC Exhibits Chair and Head of Marketing at OneSpin, said this year’s DAC program is robust and offers virtually all the technical topics that the live conference would offer, such as AI/machine learning, autonomous systems, and security. Accompanying the more than 60 virtual exhibits is the return of the Design-on-Cloud theater on Monday and the addition of the RISC-V Theater on Tuesday.
“We are excited to bring the entire DAC community together virtually. No other event offers designers, researchers and decision-makers the opportunity to interact with each other while seeing and learning first-hand the latest innovations, tools and best practices. Although this year will be different, we have worked hard to keep the true essence of DAC intact even virtually, with live panels and tutorials along with afternoon networking and social hours for interacting with other attendees. We will make 2020 DAC, which is the first virtual DAC, a memorable event for the entire community,” Li said.
