Calls for presentations, exhibition and workshops are now out.
Check: Call for contributions – FPGA-forum

FPGA-forum 2024 will be Wednesday-Thursday February 14-15.

After the Covid exception of having FPGA-forum in September in 2022, we decided to go back to February, as there is normally less happening at this time of the year in the Embedded community and because Hotel availability is better.

Reserve the dates in your calendar allready now, and if you allready have some ideas for a presentation at this event, send us an email, We are ready to receive 🙂

We are going back to arranging FPGA-forum in February and hope that Covid will no longer be a problem…
February is a good choice in very many ways – other than the potential cold weather of course 😉

February 2023 would be too early, and thus FPGA-forum will be back in February 2024.
Looking forward to meeting you there 🙂

Specification of presentation language included, and exhibitor list updated.

Program – FPGA-forum

Som vanlig satser vi på meget inspirerende Closing Keynotes for både FPGA-miljøet og hele elektronikkindustrien i Norge:

GRIFF Aviation v/ Svein Even Blakstad

GRIFF, reisen fra en liten vestlandsfjord – ut i den store verden

GRIFF Aviation er en norsk droneutviklingsbedrift lokalisert i Sykkylven i Møre og Romsdal. De utvikler droner med løftekapasitet på 100 kg+. I dette foredraget tar utviklingssjef Svein Even Blakstad oss med på reisen som selskapet har vært gjennom og veien videre inn i fremtiden. Det blir fokus på milepæler oppnådd, utfordringer underveis og hvordan de har blitt løst.

Norbit v/ Arild Søraunet

Er «Made in Norway» moderne igjen?

NORBIT har gått motstrøms og satset på både utvikling og produksjon i Norge. Adm.dir i NORBIT Per Jørgen Weisethaunet vil fortelle om NORBIT sin strategiske satsning og hvorfor de mener dette er en satsing for fremtida, krydret med eksempler på spennende prosjekter for norske selskap.

We have managed to extend the hotel booking deadline to 15. August 🙂

Please note: Prices and availability of rooms are only guaranteed until 15 August 2022, so please make sure you book no later than that.

Clive has just written a blog for Electronic Engineering Journal where he is talking about FPGA-forum. Check it out here.

AND remember to register and book hotel as soon as possible.

FPGA-forum is 7-8 September this year. This means it is very soon after the summer vacation. Thus, with booking deadlines one month prior to the event it is very important that you don’t wait with your registration for the event AND hotel booking – until it is too late.

We have reserved lots of rooms at a good price, but only until 5 August, and judging from hotel prices these days it will be rather expensive to book after our reservation – if anything is available at all…

FPGA-forum is also dependent on hotel deadlines, including the fact that it is easier to get good deals and exceptions with a good number of registrations, so please register as soon as possible – and preferably before the summer vacation.

The programme is now available.

The interest for this year’s FPGA forum has been overwhelming. We even had to continue a bit longer in the afternoon the first day to include all the interesting presentations.

We are also very pleased to have Clive “Max” Maxfiueld back as an opening keynote.

Registration is open, so please register as soon as possible.

Max will be presenting a very interesting opening keynote at this year’s FPGA-forum in September:

FPGAs and Other Awesome Technologies for the 21st Century

One of the great things about being Max is that — since he writes about high-tech topics for various online publications, coupled with his providing technical writing and consulting services to a cornucopia of high-tech companies — he gets to hear about many of the latest and greatest technologies before they appear on the market.

Even better, Max is not tied to any subject sector or technological territory; instead, he’s free to meander around gathering noteworthy nuggets of knowledge and tasty tidbits of trivia. He may start the day learning about a new artificial intelligence neural network processor, after which he might find himself up to his armpits in virtual reality, and just a little later he could be feasting his eyes on next-generation camera-sensor combos that are only 1 mm thick for use in state-of-the-art machine vision systems — and all of this before he’s had his breakfast.

In this keynote presentation, in addition to the latest and greatest in FPGA space, Max says we will take a tour around a curated selection of the weird and wonderful things he’s been exposed to recently, focusing on anything that has made him exclaim, “Ooh, Shiny!” Max also notes that, as is usually the case in his presentations, we will be leaping from topic to topic with the agility of young mountain goats, so he urges attendees to dress appropriately and responsibly.
