If you didn’t make it to Munich for productronica 2015, don’t worry. I-Connect007 has complete coverage of this long-running industry event at our RealTime with... show site.

About 38,000 visitors from around the world helped celebrate the 40^th anniversary of productronica, and show managers say the share of Asian attendees rose “considerably” this year. And 97% of visitors rated productronica “good” to “excellent,” according to reports.

“During the past four days of the fair, we have experienced the industry's unbelievable innovative strength,” said Falk Senger, managing director of Messe München. "That underscores productronica's position as an international industry gathering for electronics development and production." 

This year’s show also marked a first: The launch of the productronica Innovation Awards. A panel of judges chose the most innovative products from almost 70 entries. Winners included Fuji Machine (PCB & EMS), Rehm Thermal (SMT), F&K Delvotec (Semiconductors), Schleuniger (Cables, Coils & Hybrids), and Asys (Future Markets).

Thanks to our generous sponsors, the I-Connect007 team was available to cover the show from start to finish. The result? A total of 18 in-depth RealTime with…productronica video interviews with the industry’s top engineers, technologists, and managers, along with 126 photos of the event.

We’ll also be bringing you written interviews with these movers and shakers in the next few months, courtesy of The PCB Magazine, SMT Magazine, and The PCB Design Magazine. 

So, if you didn’t make it across the pond last week, don’t despair. We have you covered. To view I-Connect007’s video coverage of productronica 2015, click here.

Updates on trade shows, conferences, and associations dominated industry news this past week. Some events are returning to a physical venue; others are opting for a virtual version in 2020. Add to that a spate of cross-association cooperative agreements and new programs for career development coming from multiple associations, and you’ve delivered four of my top five picks.
