There is only one PDMA International Conference each year. For 28 years this is where New Product Development professionals have gathered to network and "one-stop-shop" for the latest NPD best practices and thought leadership.

Successful NPD, as never before, requires multi-functional expertise and cooperation throughout the process. PDMA has put together a conference program this year of impressive presenters and critical topics that covers it all—for you, and for your entire team.

Throughout the International Conference program, you will find a focus on what The PDMA “Body of Knowledge” resource defines as the six NPD key components: Customer, Technology, Strategy, People, Co-Development and Process.

Check out the Track Session presentations: Discovery, Development and Commercialization.
Join the Workshops for stimulating, hands-on and interactive brainstorming with your peers. Led by eminent academicians and business leaders.
The cutting-edge Research Forum happens only at the international PDMA Conference. A rare opportunity for researchers and practitioners to share knowledge about NPD.

There is a reason why this year’s international Conference is called, "Product Innovation & Management across the Lifecycle."

Join us. See you in Chicago!
