Virtual IPC APEX EXPO Kicks Off Today
March 8, 2021 | Barry Matties, I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
There will be no long TSA lines, late flights, Uber rides, noisy hotel rooms, missing luggage, or aching feet...all things that we now long for. Instead, we will be attending our first-ever online IPC APEX EXPO 2021 starting today.
We have all had our fill of online meetings, events, conferences and social interactions, and we know it’s not the same as meeting in person. However, the online experience has taught us that we can still have meaningful experiences and exchange ideas to help us improve.
One key benefit with this year’s IPC APEX EXPO is your ability to choose what session you will see or not see, as the IPC will have the sessions available for 90 days after the show so that you can catch up on whatever you missed. Also, those on your team who normally do not travel to the event will now be able to take part.
So, today’s the day for your team to virtually travel to IPC APEX EXPO and enjoy a full schedule of events that will drive industry conversation and inspire our future. We here at I-Connect007 will bring you our complete Real Time with IPC event coverage, along with our special annual post-show Real Time with IPC Show & Tell Magazine. This publication will be packed with multimedia content, reviews, interviews and more.
We have also produced a special one-minute I-Connect007 video that can be viewed here:

EIPC Issues Letter of Urgency
04/29/2024 | Alun Morgan, EIPCAlun Morgan, president of EIPC, issued a letter last week in an effort to raise awareness of the state of PCB manufacturing in Europe. He writes, "The European PCB manufacturing industry and its supply base has been steadily shrinking since the dot com crash at the start of the millennium. European demand for PCBs and assemblies has, however, continued to grow, thus creating an ever-widening gap between European domestic capacity and consumption. The risks posed by this imbalanced supply and demand pattern came into sharp focus during the Covid-19 pandemic which caused chaos in extended supply chains across the world and resulted in widespread shortages."

I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
04/26/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineIn this week’s roundup, we have a variety of articles covering everything from design through assembly, and even box build. I’ve always wondered whether box build was all it was cracked up to be. Do customers really pick one EMS provider over another because one company offers box build? And if you’ve ever wanted to volunteer, IPC’s Thought Leaders Program is looking for a few good technologists to help them on their mission. Check out Stanton Rak’s article, which was published in the spring issue of IPC Community.
