On November 14-15, Wearable USA will take place in Santa Clara, CA.
This year, Wearable USA returns alongside parallel conference tracks covering the most important technology trends in IoT, sensors, energy storage, printed and flexible electronics, additive manufacturing and advanced materials.
Wearable technology industry revenues continue to expand in defiance of falling hype. IDTechEx predict that the market for wearable technology will reach $160bn by 2027, growing from an industry that is already more than $30bn today. The challenge for "wearables" is in the name; this umbrella term is defined by the success of industries and product categories within that follow increasingly divergent paths.
Wearable USA remains the leading global event on electronic textiles. With the topic slowly maturing over two decades, manufacturers and brands alike are approaching a point where e-textile products can not only be feasible for larger consumer, medical or enterprise markets, but can also be cost effective to deploy in volume. Many leading integrators and technology providers will demonstrate their latest developments on the exhibition floor, including IDTechEx's dedicated Demonstration Street, Apparel Zone and Launchpad features. In addition, a hand-picked group of the most exciting companies will also present in the conference, addressing technology topics such as thermal management, textile sensing and textile actuators, but also describing the progress towards successful commercialization in a challenging new area.
