The Coeur d ’ Alene Resort in Idaho is an easy sell for annual conference attendees . The grounds are beautiful , the hotel unique , and the conference center robust . Conference dates of May 30 and 31 mean good weather and a chance to be outside .

And yet , the location is only a bonus to the must-attend I-90 Aerospace Corridor Conference & Expo . With a theme of “ All Systems Go ,” the 2023 event will bring together participants from Montana , Idaho , and all corners of Washington . Manufacturing companies and other stakeholders in aviation , aerospace , space and advanced manufacturing will find value in both the price and time invested .

The 2022 conference was sold out for both attendees and exhibitors — the first year after the pandemic inspired people to get out and attend a spring conference . They did so in droves . Over 275 people attended in 2022 , 25 percent over the goal . Organizers expect more than 60 exhibitors in 2023 . New this year will be a “ Demonstration Zone ” where participants can see firsthand some of the latest tools in manufacturing automation .
The conference ’ s value is multitudinous — it is in the connections made through the open-networking format and the participation of exhibitors sharing their products and services , along with use cases demonstrating best practices throughout the industry . Attendees also gain valuable insights through the educated and experienced speakers who bring their industry successes and recommendations to the stage . The focus on actionable information enables participants to return to their business with new tools for improving the way they do business .
