Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.

AT&S Admitted to the Austrian Lead Index ATX
March 3, 2016 | AT&SEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
AT&S, one of the global technology leaders for printed circuit boards, is moving up to the Austrian lead index ATX (Austrian Traded Index) according to a decision adopted on 2 March 2016 by the ATX committee, which is in charge of the composition of the index on the Vienna Stock Exchange.
The ATX is the most important stock index calculated by the Vienna Stock Exchange and has existed for 25 years. The index comprises the shares of the 20 largest companies on the Vienna Stock Exchange based on stock market turnover and free float capitalisation.
The criteria used as a basis for the decision of the ATX committee for the admission to the ATX consist of the share’s average daily volume traded in the past 12 months and the free float capitalisation at the closing price at the end of February. AT&S ranked 20th in terms of volume traded and 25th in free float capitalisation, thus moving up to the Austrian lead index for the first time.
“We are very pleased with the admission to the ATX. We consider this step a confirmation of our company strategy, which aims to create sustainable value for investors based on a successful business development. For us, this step is an additional incentive to continue justifying the trust which investors have placed in us by pursuing transparent capital market communication and a positive company development”, says AT&S CEO Andreas Gerstenmayer.
AT&S has been listed on the stock exchange since 17 July 1999, originally in Frankfurt, in the “Neuer Markt” segment. In the year 2008, the change over to the Vienna Stock Exchange, where the shares have been listed in the “Prime Market” segment since 20 May 2008, was completed. The prerequisite for a listing in this segment is the compliance with extended transparency and disclosure obligations.
The admission of the AT&S share to the ATX will become effective on 21 March 2016. The index composition of the ATX is reviewed semi-annually; the next review will take place in September 2016.

Is China Plus One Still Happening in the PCB Industry?
04/28/2026 | Manfred Huschka, Manfred Huschka Management Consulting (Shenzhen) Ltd.For much of the past five years, China Plus One has been shorthand for supply-chain diversification: reducing dependency on mainland China by adding manufacturing capacity elsewhere in Asia. In the PCB industry, however, in early 2026, it is more nuanced. It looks less like a clean geographic shift and more like a layered, capital-intensive rebalancing of global capacity, one that still leaves China deeply embedded at the center.
It's Only Common Sense: See Your Marketing as a Discipline, Not a Department
04/27/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseWhat does marketing mean to you? Is it a corner office with cool posters on the wall? Is it the person running your LinkedIn page or the trade show booth with the shiny graphics and the bowl of candy? Yes, marketing is those things, but it’s more than that. It’s a discipline, and if you treat it like a department, you’re already losing.
