The 2024 IPC CEMAC China Electronics Manufacturing Annual Conference, co-organized by IPC and the Shanghai Pudong New Area Quality Technology Association, kicked off today with a grand opening ceremony in Shanghai. Themed "Making Your Imagination Reality," the event has brought together leaders, technical experts, and corporate representatives from the global electronics manufacturing industry to explore future trends and opportunities. This year's conference has attracted over 400 companies and more than 600 industry professionals, highlighting its influence as a significant gathering in the electronics manufacturing sector.

In conjunction with NEPCON Vietnam 2024, IPC hosted its popular IPC Hand Soldering and Rework Competition in Hanoi, Vietnam, September 11-13.  Thirty-nine competitors from 16 electronics companies and one university in Vietnam vied for top honors.

WHMA/IPC invites engineers, researchers, academics, technical experts, and industry leaders to submit proposals for the Electrical Wire Processing Technology Expo (EWPTE), to be held May 6-8, 2025 at Baird Center in Milwaukee, Wis.

Starting September 12, IPC’s Road to Reliability Webinar series will bring industry leaders together to discuss the hurdles in achieving reliability for new e-mobility technology. Speakers will examine reliability drivers, technology applications, and target lifecycles in each free webinar.

Registration is now open for the 2025 WHMA Annual Global Leadership Summit, the industry’s only annual executive networking event for the cable and wire harness manufacturing industry including manufacturers, their suppliers, and customers.

Ensuring reliability in high-voltage electronics, a new standardized test method for abrasion resistance of e-textiles, and assembly and solder joint X-ray challenges are just a few of technical conference topics offered at IPC’s High Reliability Forum October 9-10 at the McKimmon Center in Raleigh, N.C.
