India continues its acceleration as a global electronics manufacturing hub. At the heart of this momentum is Integrated Electronics Manufacturing & Interconnections (IEMI) 2026, the flagship industry platform of the Global Electronics Association.
Building on the themes from my recent Community Magazine article, “Unlocking Workforce Potential: Beyond Federal Dollars,” this webinar will unpack how employers across the U.S. can access a range of underutilized funding opportunities to support training and apprenticeship programs. We’ll explore how national, state, and private resources can be braided to offset costs, expand training capacity, and build sustainable talent pipelines.
While we’ll highlight recent examples—like the newly awarded Employment Training Panel (ETP) contract that supports California employers—our focus will be national, offering employers a practical roadmap for identifying, combining, and leveraging diverse funding sources to maximize workforce development impact.
This is a must‑attend online event for Training Managers, Learning & Development Directors, HR Managers, Workforce Development Coordinators, Grants Managers, and Administrators.
Introduced in France for the first time, the Cable & Wire Harness Competition (CWH) will take place during Global Industrie 2026 in Paris Nord Villepinte.

This webinar explains how to use visual inspection alongside a plug-in thermal camera to detect circuit board faults. By spotting heat anomalies, engineers can quickly locate overheating components, shorts, or other issues that may not be visible — streamlining diagnostics and improving repair accuracy.
