Tariffs, CapEx spending, the war in Ukraine, and domestic and global economies: We were curious about what’s on industry leader’s minds as we launch headlong into Q2 2025. Therefore, in the April 2025 issue of PCB007 Magazine, we highlight voices from the industry, how they feel about their businesses, the effects of a new U.S. administration, and where technology is heading. We hear from leaders within PCB manufacturing—TTM, CEE PCB, Alpha Circuit, Accurate Circuit Engineering, and NCAB—as well as leadership among their suppliers, including Pluritec, Ventec, and Schmoll America. Our contributors discuss a broad range from strategy and growth, being nimble and resilient, and creating strength in the supply chain. Their answers provide an enlightening glimpse into where our industry finds itself right now and for the remainder of 2025.
