The Tech Conference West, an annual technology conference for the sewn-products industry, will debut April 2, 2008, at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising’s (FIDM) Orange County campus in Irvine, Calif.

The conference will be hosted by Apparel magazine, which coordinates a similar event each fall in New York. New York–based Computer Generated Solutions Inc. (CGS) is the main sponsor.

The daylong event will feature a keynote technology presentation, a small trade-show area, more than a dozen educational sessions and a networking reception.
