The newly named International Electronics Circuit Exhibition, formerly known as the HKPCA Show, kicked off today in Shenzhen, China.
This is the largest trade show serving the south China region, with 3,537 booths from 621 exhibitors this year. The show—under the theme Converging Ideas, Steering Innovation, Navigating Industry—is organized by the Hong Kong Printed Circuit Association (HKPCA), in conjunction with a new partner this year, the China Printed Circuit Association (CPCA). This new collaboration aims to connect global industry leaders to spark great ideas and shape the industry’s development, while enhancing the capabilities of the China PCB industry.
The I-Connect007 China team is here covering the event as part of our Real Time with...International Electronics Circuit Exhibition program, sponsored by Ventec International. Please enjoy this slide show of the opening VIP reception and opening ceremony.
