Registration Open for Electrical Wire Processing Technology Expo (EWPTE) 2024
February 28, 2024 | IPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Registration is now open for Electrical Wire Processing Technology Expo (EWPTE) an exclusive, free-of-charge* event for the electrical wire harness, wire, coil winding and cable processing industries, to be held at Baird Center May 14-16, 2024, in Milwaukee, Wis.
Produced by the Wiring Harness Manufacturer’s Association (WHMA) and IPC, EWPTE is the only trade association exclusively representing the cable and wire harness manufacturing industry including manufacturers, their suppliers and customers. EWPTE is where the industry comes together to find solutions to challenging wire problems through training and education and for the opportunity to network with industry leaders and subject matter experts.
With an even larger show floor than last year featuring the industry’s leading suppliers and product innovators, attendees will get exclusive access to new technologies and new suppliers to help find solutions to challenging wire problems. There will also be a range of professional development courses with content designed to deliver new information, skills, and techniques related to the cable and wire harness industry. Technical conference sessions presented by engineers, researchers, academics, technical experts, and industry leaders will provide new technical data, significant results from experiments and case studies and share new techniques and trends of interest. Attendees can also take advantage of networking opportunities and connect with industry leaders and subject matter experts.
“Attendees at all career stages can come to EWPTE and harness the future through courses, technical conference sessions, peer-to-peer networking opportunities on the show floor and events with exhibitors,” said Parker Garrett, incoming WHMA Board Chair. “We want participants to transform the ideas and innovations they acquire at the event into tangible real-world solutions and business opportunities.”
