IPC EMS Management Council Meeting
December 31, 1969 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
This meeting focuses on trends that critically affect the contract manufacturing (CM) business, including:
Mergers and acquisitions - If competitors are being swallowed up, that`s one thing. But when customer and supply bases are shrinking, that`s another.
Technical support - Do you have the right people with the right background and education engineering your processes and equipment?
Internet relationships - What data are your competitors sharing with their customers on a real-time basis? With the evolution of the Internet, executives have to rethink business rules, such as whether to expose inventory levels to all of their customers.
The meeting delves into all of these issues. Discover and create new solutions to age-old annoyances. Panel discussions, small group roundtables and expert presentations allow the widest opportunity to learn from attendees as well as presenters.
Following a VIP dinner with General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, the council reconvenes for a networking breakfast, special lecture and keynote session featuring General Schwarzkopf. Immediately following the keynote session, tour the APEX show floor before it opens to the general public.
