With the 2023 Embedded Online Conference just around the corner, we’re thrilled to announce that our Team Registration Event is back with a very special offer.

For a limited time only (the offer expires on 04/16), we’re providing a ‘company-wide’ (unlimited) pass for just $1990. This pass includes one year of on-demand access and is an excellent option for teams with six or more individuals who are interested in attending the conference. The best part is, the price is the same whether you register six or fifty engineers – all they need to do is be part of the same company.
