February 26, 2025 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (INEMI) will have two forward-looking sessions at the upcoming IPC APEX EXPO in Anaheim, California (March 18-20). Both sessions are open to conference attendees with a (free) Event Essentials Pass. The two sessions are outlined below.
For INEMI planning purposes, please click here to let us know if you plan to attend one or both sessions, or if you want to meet with INEMI staff at the conference.
INEMI Roadmap Readout and Future Planning Session — PCB and Laminates
(Tuesday, March 18 / 9:30 a.m. — 12:00 p.m.)
This session combines information about key technology trends and associated challenges identified in the iNEMI PCB Roadmap with updates from ongoing iNEMI technical projects addressing some of these challenges. It will also include a discussion of longer-term trends and application-specific requirements anticipated over the next 10 years. The session aims to help prioritize the topics to be included in future iNEMI Roadmap updates and potentially identify topics for future collaborative projects.
INEMI Roadmap Readout and Future Planning Session — Board Assembly
(Wednesday, March 19 / 8:00-10:00 a.m.)
Board assembly is a key step in the manufacture of complex integrated electronic systems. In this session, iNEMI will provide a review of the recently published Board Assembly Roadmap. There will also be a discussion of, and brainstorming on, longer-term trends and technology disruptions in board assembly and associated complex integrated systems. Outputs will be used to shape further iNEMI roadmapping activities in 2025.
In addition to the two sessions, three INEMI project teams are scheduled to present papers as part of the APEX Technical Conference:
- AI Enhancement to AOI for PCBA Project, Phase 2
- PCB Connector Footprint Tolerance Project
- Reliability & Loss Properties of Copper Foils for 5G Applications Project
“IPC APEX EXPO is an excellent venue where we can share roadmap and project information, get excellent industry perspectives and feedback for planning future activities, and meet with current and prospective members,” says INEMI CEO Shekhar Chandrashekhar. “We are looking forward to a very productive conference.”
