APEX EXPO 2026 is coming soon, and it is bigger and better than ever. This month, we take you inside the annual trade show of the Global Electronics Association, to preview the conferences, standards, keynotes, and other special events new to the show this year. Consider this your passport to where the electronics manufacturing industry is headed in 2026.
What’s inside this issue?
Meet the Standards Team at the Global Electronics Association. They break down the whats, whys, and how-tos of today’s standards development processes. You’ll come away feeling more confident about how you can fit into this entirely volunteers process.
Changes are afoot in the Technical Conference, but never fear, all your favorite topics will still be represented. Co-chairs Stan Rak and Udo Welzel, along with Matt Kelly and Devan Iyer, are adding an advanced packaging component this year, and even if you don’t see how this touches your business, after the conference, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
We also break down what’s new at APEX EXPO this year, including a Technology Pavilion, Design Village, Learning Lounge, expanded days and times in the Technology Conference, and all the keynote speakers during the week.
