The Association’s half-year survey of the European EMS industry carries an encouraging message: the sector has passed the bottom of the cycle.

There are moments when an industry stops reacting and starts shaping its own future. For European electronics, that moment comes to Paris on 17 September, with Electronics Day EMS Europe, a full day dedicated to the businesses, the people and the policies driving European electronics manufacturing forward.

The Global Electronics Association today released the "Annual Survey of the European EMS Industry 2026" and announced it is assuming guidance and insight of the in4ma European EMS and PCB statistical programs.

As revealed this week by an annual survey conducted by in4ma and sponsored by IPC, the electronics manufacturing services (EMS) industry in Europe experienced negative 14 percent growth in printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) production in 2024.
