Keynotes
During two inspiring keynotes, industry leaders joined us onstage to reveal how test organizations can be the strategic differentiator for their companies by driving business outcomes and why the future of test requires multiyear investing in critical technology, like smart connected systems; automating data insight; integrating design and test; and connecting user workflows.
Our Speakers
Distinguished companies like Allegro MicroSystems, Northrop Grumman, NXP, the Battery Innovation Center, and more shared their fresh perspectives and best practices.
Technical Sessions
Technical session attendees learned to increase efficiency and quality while decreasing time to market and total cost of test. They explored leading technologies and approaches, including Python/LabVIEW integration, effectively managing test data, and using analytics tools like AI and ML to improve yield.
Conference Highlights at NI Connect Austin 2023
NI Connect Austin wasn’t just some ordinary tech conference. Attendees received individual support from our R&D experts, attended a one-of-a-kind party at the Circuit of the Americas racetrack, and delighted in the city’s most popular attractions.
Experience Lounge
Once again, the Experience Lounge was the perfect space for sharing ideas, exploring technology, and fostering lasting connections between innovators. Highlights included the popular R&D Expert Bar, up-close demonstrations of cutting-edge tech products, and our retro arcade games!
Conference Party
This year, partygoers enjoyed live music and good conversations at our most memorable venue yet—the Circuit of the Americas racetrack! Of course, we won’t forget the fun we had in the pit lane garages, the vintage cars on display, and those panoramic views from the top of the Observation Tower.
