Espressif DevCon26

Espressif's first live DevCon outside Asia, two days at the Cosmo Hotel Palace in Cinisello Balsamo, in English. Day one is the global conference, streamed worldwide: new SoCs, a security block built around getting ESP32 products CRA-ready, an AI session covering ESP Private Agents, then solutions and ecosystem tracks, closing with an open Q&A at 18:10. Day two is hands-on workshops — edge AI with ESP-TFLite-Micro and Bosch sensors on the ESP32-C5, ESP32-S31 security, edge AI and vision, and HMI with LVGL and M5Stack. The conference ticket is free; workshops are paid and priced in Hong Kong dollars, and two have already sold out. Why go: if you ship anything on ESP32, this is the one room where the silicon team, the toolchain people and the CRA compliance question are all in the same place. Best for embedded engineers and hardware product leads.
