A
ustralia’s only dedicated trade event for the electronics industry will be held in Sydney in April after a four year absence. Electronex – The Electronics Design and Assembly Expo and Conference will be staged from 5-6 April at Rosehill Gardens Event Centre. The event is in its 12th year and alternates annually between Sydney and Melbourne, the Expo was postponed in 2020 due to COVID and according to the organisers, exhibitors and trade visitors have been eagerly awaiting the Sydney event. “With Australia on a path to learning to live with COVID there is pent up demand from visitors to return to face to face discussions with companies to discuss their manufacturing requirements. The increased focus on hi-tech manufacturing in Australia is expected to boost attendance and Electronex brings together Australia’s leading suppliers with the latest technology and solutions. “In a visitor survey at the 2019 Expo in Melbourne, 98% of attendees said that a dedicated industry exhibition such as Electronex was beneficial for
their industry,” Australasian Exhibitions and Events managing director Noel Gray said. Ninety companies onboard In addition to featuring a wide range of electronic components, surface mount and inspection equipment, test and measurement products and other ancillary products and services, companies can also discuss their specific requirements with contract manufacturers that can design and produce turnkey solutions for specific applications. Around 90 companies will be represented at the Expo which Gray described as “a must see event” for designers, engineers, managers, and other decision makers who are involved in designing or manufacturing products that utilise electronics. A large number of companies will also be launching and demonstrating new products and technology at the event. Visitors to the Expo can register for free at www.electronex.com.au. Visitors are asked to pre-register and their badge will be emailed to them to avoid crowding and queuing at the entrance. IU Electronex +613 9676 2133 www.electronex.com.au
