MILPITAS, Calif., April 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The ES Design West exhibitor list continues to grow with the additions of Ansys, Breker Verification Systems, ClioSoft, Coventor, Methodics, OneSpin, Real Intent, Rescale and Silvaco.

They join initial exhibitors Arm; Cadence Design Systems; CAST; IC Manage; Mentor, a Siemens Business; and Synopsys for the inaugural event co-located with SEMICON West 2019 July 9-11 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center South Hall.

“CAST has been successful for 25 years by listening to system designers and in turn providing the IP functions and reusability features that they need to be successful,” notes Nikos Zervas, chief operating officer of CAST, Inc. “We decided to participate in ES Design West early on, anticipating great opportunities for contact with many more leading system designers right in their backyard.”

ES Design West, hosted by the ESD Alliance, is the only event in North America that links the electronic system and semiconductor design community with the electronic product manufacturing and supply chain. Presentations will address commercial achievements of the electronic system design community and forward-looking, system-centric design approaches. ES Design West and SEMICON West attendees will learn first-hand how design and manufacturing are drawing closer together.

“For 30 years, the EDA Consortium, now ESD Alliance, has played an important role in our industry by providing a great forum for networking and meeting potential partners and customers,” remarks Jerry Brocklehurst, Methodics’ vice president of marketing. “Their various committees and events have fostered an open dialog and collaborative atmosphere that has helped our industry evolve and grow with the times. We believe the inaugural ES Design West event will continue this tradition and we look forward to participating.”
