MasterTech Expo 2025 Experiences Significant Growth

MasterTech announced that MasterTech Expo 2025, held March 20-23, 2025, at the Mesa Convention Center in Mesa, Arizona, has continued its year-after-year growth, surpassing a 20% increase in attendees versus the 2024 event and a record number of exhibiting manufacturers.

“The 2025 MasterTech Expo experienced remarkable growth in all facets of the event,” said Bryan Schmitt, founder, CEO and president of Mobile Solutions. “The feedback from both manufacturers and attendees has been overwhelmingly positive. What sets us apart is that we don’t just lecture—we engage, listen and deliver high-value training tailored to what attendees truly want. The interaction in our classes and at our exhibit booths is also second to none. We’re also incredibly proud that several companies chose MasterTech as the platform to launch not just new products but entire brands. That speaks volumes about our standing in the industry.”

According to company officials, the event occupied more than one city block and six hotels, provided 14 hours of training by 52 industry-leading professional instructors, and six hours of high-level training sessions from more than 40 renowned manufacturers. Attendees also watched more than 20 competitors in the Build-Off and Clean Wire live competitions.
