Headline: We’re talking Ferrocene and Rust at #ew26 
Body Text: Find us at Booth 4-402 in Hall 4. 

We’ll be there with demos, insights into Rust on embedded systems and (of course!) Stickers. Find us under our Ferrocene Ferrous marquee. 

Its a blue square and in the corner is an illustration of the crab known as Ferris. Ferris is wearing a fashionable hard hat with the Ferrocene logo on it, because this Ferris enables critical-safety in a controlled Rust environment thanks to the efforts of Ferrous Systems. You go, Ferris!

A blue square that advertises the latest white paper from Ferrous Systems titled The Business case for Rust & Ferrocene. Description on the square says: 

With growing software complexity and stricter regulatory requirements, traditional programming languages struggle to meet the demands of modern, safety-critical embedded systems. Read how Rust and the Ferrocene toolchain deliver a safer, more efficient approach — blending performance, memory safety, open source flexibility, and certification readiness.

Why Rust? Because it makes commercial sense. If you're unsure if #RustLang is right for your business – or want to convince your CTO that it's time to add Rust to your stack, then it's time to download our white paper:
