2026 Comments from Exhibitors & Attendees


... saw a ton of people and the time spent is always worth the effort . Please keep it up and make the venue larger!
Steve Ennis, Ennis Technical Sales

The power symposium was great this year. Good mix of vendors at the event and the presentations had excellent topics which made it difficult to choose which one to attend.
Giovanni Colella, Zebra

Very well organized as usual, both ahead of and during the event. Exhibit floor layout was very good, plenty of space for foot traffic.
Ryan Swanton, Orbel

Overall, I love the format. Check in was very smooth. For some of the cons, I found that seating was too limited with many people left standing. For the pros, there was an excellent mix of venders who were eager to talk professionally and show their hardware off. I really love to come to these expositions as I always learn something and make new friends and business contacts. It's a very value-added event in my experience.
William Manganaro, TTM/Telephonics

The show was great! This event has really become a highlight in my year. I really enjoy seeing people in person. Thank you to all those people who make this happen!
Ann Marie DeLuca, Crowley Associates

Well organized. I didn't need to worry about anything. Communication was excellent. The lectures were engaging. It was excellent engaging with the community.
Frank Miranda, American Environments

I really enjoyed the conference and appreciate seeing the different companies, some of which I have dealing with, in terms of the product my companies built.
Ken Neubeck, North Atlantic Industries

Another great IEEE Power Symposium in the books.
Dennis Starke, ANRO Fusion

The show looked to be very well attended and a very nice display floor of manufactures and vendors. The nice thing I noticed was a lot of younger attendees the next generation showed up.
Anthony Yackovich, Contech Marketing

Great job on the event. I think the opportunity to engage with the community was valuable. Some areas for improvement: Put an agenda sign at the door of the presentations to say which presentations will be in that room; Could you adjust the schedule to have a break in the presentation schedule when the coffee is out? Looking forward to next year.
Bob Zollo, Keysight

Great Conference. Conference rooms were a bit small ...
Anonymous

Everything was excellent. Suggest having multiple stations for coffee and lunch as the traffic was heavy with long lines
Tom Terlizzi, GM Systems

As always -- well organized and relevant. Stay the coarse!
Victor Marten, Sensata Technologies

The 2026 IEEE LI Power Electronics Symposium featured exceptionally well-organized content, highly informative lectures, and engaging sessions. Parking was extremely limited to none, and the lecture rooms were undersize.
Amit Shah, TTM/Telephonics

It was a great time.
Marc Lindahl, Bowery Engineering

Great show, much more people were there this year from last. Vendors had great products and very willing to answer questions.
Daniel Barnett, Curtiss-Wright

I found the EPC and Stony Brook presentations to be very detailed and apropos to what my field is.
Harold Eicher, Champs Technologies

This was a fantastic event. The turnout was excellent, with a great mix of vendors and local customers. I really enjoyed connecting with people throughout the day; the layout made it easy to visit the tables and have good conversations. The food options were excellent, too. The organizers did an outstanding job putting it all together. Looking forward to the show next year!
Brian Santiago, Contech Marketing

Another excellent show, please keep it going! My only suggestion is to consider a location with more space.
Steve Wolf, Rohde & Schwarz

It is a great local conference. Thank you for making it a great day.
Erika Sebens, MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions

Very well organized event, interesting presentations, a lot of local vendors.
Ivan Kotov, Brookhaven National Laboratory

The seminars had material that was presented in an easy-to-understand method, and the speakers answered all of the questions. There was a good group of vendors that showed the actual products they sell, this was more informative than just data sheets. A very good day.
Eugene Schlader, TTM/Telephonics

I really liked the layout of the floor for the exhibitors. It gave it more room and easier access to the exhibitors. The lecture content was excellent.
Bert Parachini, Foster Wager

I attended four lectures that were more beneficial to me and the line of work I'm involved in. ... look forward to the next one.
Scott Fawcett, BC Systems

I thought the turnout was great, we've done 3 years in a row and have been very happy with the way it is handled.
James Moore, CBA Empire

Great event and a lot of support from the members of IEEE team. Look forward to next year!
Kevin Latonick, Rohde & Schwarz
