We feature an in-depth conversation with European market researcher Dieter Weiss, who’s giving back to the industry through data research, and you must read about the somewhat unconventional but ultimately satisfying sustainability-driven lifestyle of IPC course instructor Kris Moyer.
IPC Chief Economist Shawn DuBravac breaks down inventory costs following the pandemic, while IPC Japan Representative Yusaku Kono gives an update on how Japan’s electronics economy is recovering after the pandemic and the phenomenal growth of IPC standards and certifications in Japan.
Regarding sustainability, IPC Community visited with Zhou (Peter) Guoyin, a pioneer in ESG standards. You can also learn more about circularity in electronics from IPC's Lead Sustainability Strategist, Kelly Scanlon, and Stanley Merritt, a member of the IPC Sustainability Leadership Council, who educates us on supply chain sustainability, particularly in aerospace and defense.
We’ve devoted a special section to IEMI, the premier electronics manufacturing trade show sponsored by IPC India, which crossed borders this year to host events in Malaysia and India with great success. Dr. John W. Mitchell, president and CEO of IPC, attended both events and shares his insights on what it means to host the event in Malaysia.
For printed circuit board designers, we've highlighted the Pan-European Design Conference in January, where you can learn how to participate in this exciting new opportunity in Vienna.
As always, you’ll discover instructor-led courses happening this winter, learn about the latest standards releases, and see what's happening around the world with IPC in our Q4 calendar.
