EMSNOW and in4ma Embark on Fourth ‘On Tour’: First Stop, Tunisia

EMSNOW and in4ma have announced that for the fourth consecutive year they will be jointly touring and reporting on the EMS industry in Europe. This year’s tour begins today and will include site visits with nine EMS companies in Tunisia, including all the largest EMS with facilities there. The team will visit five more EMS in France and Germany and attendance at the in4ma EMS-Forum in Ulm Germany. This event will welcome over 100 EMS and PCB executives from German speaking countries.

Dieter and Eric will be doing daily podcasts that will post on EMSNOW throughout the tour. A final report on this industry-leading on-site research will be made available at no charge later this summer.

EMSNOW and in4ma strive to champion the EMS industry, and direct meetings with EMS companies are key to this.

Daily podcasts published on EMSNOW.com will record the insights gained by these two industry experts; written reports, interviews and articles will also be posted in the following months.  Profiles of all EMS companies visited will be made available via EMSNOW subsequent to the tour.

“These visits and discussions with EMS companies are invaluable to our deepening understanding of trends impacting the rapidly evolving global electronics manufacturing industry,” explained EMSNOW Publisher Eric Miscoll. “EMSNOW is the voice of this industry and hearing first-hand about the challenges and opportunities facing EMS companies of all sizes helps us stay in touch. This tour includes Tunisia, an emerging low-cost region supporting the European market. In addition, we will meet with several good-sized EMS companies in France and Germany, which should prove to be very enlightening as well.”

“The EMS industry is in for a bumpy ride in 2024 and it is important to understand how low-cost regions like Tunisia can benefit the European EMS industry,” continued in4ma’s Dieter Weiss.  “We are also the organizers of the EMS Forum in Ulm, Germany which is an event for the German speaking EMS and PCB manufacturers.  These tours and events enable in4ma to better understand and represent the industry, and I thank all the companies who are allowing us to visit them,” he concluded.
