More than 120 participants gathered onsite in Toulouse, with an additional 20 joining online, for the 2026 Electronics Day Design France, organised by Global Electronics Association in collaboration with IPC Designers Council France. Over two days, the event brought together PCB designers, manufacturers, aerospace engineers, technical experts, and industry professionals to exchange knowledge, discuss practical engineering challenges, and strengthen collaboration across the European electronics ecosystem.

This one-hour webinar presents an insight into the PCB Signal Integrity simulation and IBIS model characterization process. A review of what exactly signal integrity simulation does on the PCB and at the system level. A discussion on how the IBIS model is a default for analyzing IC Chips’ input/output waveform integrity. The IBIS model is broken down for easier understanding of its operation and integration into the SI simulation. In addition, a quick note on how to achieve accurate results for Signal Integrity simulation.

The Global Electronics Association, is pleased to announce that IPC Builds 2026 is now open for registration. IPC Builds 2026 is a week-long series of standards development meetings to be held in Europe for the second time, following the first Barcelona success in 2024. Over the years, volunteers worldwide have participated in IPC standards development committee meetings to bring the most trusted standards for electronics manufacturing to the industry. In 2026, we’re excited to head to Paris for this traditional and industry-driving event.

The 2026 Electrical Wire Processing Technology Expo (EWPTE) brought together the cable and wire harness manufacturing industry for another strong year of innovation, education, and business development, drawing 3,140 total participants to Milwaukee.

EV performance depends on more than chips. Discover how materials, packaging, and thermal management are redefining power electronics.

Quality AI is only as Good as Your Data – “Setting Yourself Up for Good AI Outcomes”
Know the Data – Capture the Data – Use the Data

The push to increase manufacturing operations with the incorporation of AI continues to surge. To ensure usable, accurate outcomes, an assessment of current operations is needed to establish an AI dataset that will serve as the baseline for analyzing and interpreting the process. A system needs to be established to report process improvements and corrective actions based on the baseline dataset. The quality plan can now be implemented using the baseline data, with enhancements to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Join our panel discussion and learn about the critical data needed to establish the Quality Process, establish the Quality Documentation & Compliance System to support the process, and to provide the Quality Manager, Production Manager, or Operations Manager with quality data to implement the Quality Process, Documentation & Compliance.

The takeaways will be to:
1.    Know the Data with Shop floor planning
2.    Capture the Data with Quality Plans & Compliance
3.    Use the Data to Isolate the defects, establish Sort & Inspection Criteria, & Implement Rapid Deployment with real-time reporting to ensure Good Quality Outcomes!

The wire harness industry is constantly evolving with new technology and practices. The 2027 WHMA Annual Global Leadership Summit offers the tools you need to help your business succeed in this fast-changing landscape. WHMA's Annual Global Leadership Summit (formerly the WHMA Annual Conference) is a networking event for executives representing wire harness manufacturers, OEMs and suppliers for companies that build wiring harnesses and cable assemblies.
