Data I/O Corporation (NASDAQ: DAIO), the leading global provider of advanced data and security deployment solutions for flash, flash-memory based intelligent devices and microcontrollers, announced today that it has accepted an invitation to be featured in the first-ever multi-day MS Microcaps Virtual Investor Conference, co-hosted by GeoInvesting. The virtual conference will take place from March 3-7, 2025, with 18 hand-picked companies providing formal presentations or participating in fireside chats with Maj Soueidan. DAIO was recently added to the MS Microcap Quality Index (MSMqi). The MSMqi adds stocks to the index that meet certain quality factors and a curated multi-bagger checklist. Data I/O President and CEO William Wentworth will be participating in a fireside chat on Thursday, March 6, at 1:30 PM EST.

“We are incredibly excited to hold our first-ever Virtual Investor Conference. The event will give 18 select companies the opportunity to share their progress and connect with engaged investors looking for quality smaller cap names to invest in,” said Maj Soueidan, Founder of MS Microcaps and Co-founder of GeoInvesting, LLC. “As part of MS Microcaps’ mission to bring institutional quality investment research to the individual investor and help broaden the awareness of the opportunities that exist in the inefficient micro-cap universe, three years ago we created the first quality-based smaller cap index (MSMqi). There are currently 109 stocks in that index, including Data I/O Corporation, and 13 of these companies will be participating in our inaugural conference, along with another 5 on our MSMqi watch list.”
