Uniting for Resilience: Advocacy and Strategy in Europe's EMS and PCB Industries

Philip Spagnoli Stoten

Discover the collaborative efforts promoting Europe's electronics manufacturing industry as I, Philip Stoten, sit with Xaver Feiner from Zollner and Thomas Michels from Ilfa at APEX 2024. Together we explore the complexities of uniting diverse trade associations and their role in advocating for the supply chain's significance to European governments. This episode offers insights into how these industry champions are influencing policy and fostering European solidarity in a post-pandemic world marked by supply chain vulnerabilities.

Thomas and Xaver spotlight the critical nature of printed circuit boards and electronic manufacturing services in the electronic supply chain. Together numerous associations are writing a collective letter to the European Parliament and national leaders proposing concerted actions to secure the industry's growth and resilience. 

Tune in to this discussion for a look at the collaborative front being presented to safeguard the future of Europe's electronic manufacturing landscape.
