EMSNOW Publisher Eric Miscoll and in4ma’s Dieter Weiss exchange impressions from in4ma’s EMS & PCB Forum 2026 held in Würzburg, Germany. This exclusive event brings together leaders from the EMS, PCB and investment community to learn and network without commercial distractions.
The Forum agenda was presented in both English and German and packed with high level strategic content; this podcast discussion provides an overview of the highlights: The Role of Eastern Europe in EMS, Update on Rare Earth Minerals, The European CHIPS Act, Vertical Integration as a Strategic Advantage, Consolidation in the EMS Market, New Business Models; Digitalization Strategies. EMS and PCB companies of all sizes were represented and the presentations were relevant to the entire group. All 200 attendees stayed engaged right up to the closing remarks.
The networking sessions were equally well received and the feedback since the event has been enthusiastic. Without the distractions of sales people and exhibits, the focus was on relationship-building and increased understanding of the data and insights that will propel the industry forward in the 2026 and beyond.
