Semiconductors, circularity and EMS strategy in focus in Gothenburg September 07, 2026 Evertiq Expo Gothenburg takes place on September 17 and brings together the Swedish and Nordic electronics industry for a full day focused on the semiconductor market, component management, PCB manufacturing and how the global EMS industry is changing.
Semiconductor obsolescence is becoming a structural problem September 02, 2026 The gap between how long electronics manufacturers need their products to last and how long component makers are willing to keep producing them is widening. For industries like aerospace, medical and defence – where a product can be in service for twenty or thirty years – the shift toward consumer-driven semiconductor lifecycles is creating a slow-moving crisis that is only now getting the attention it deserves.
Shrinking semiconductor lifespans put obsolescence management to the test May 12, 2026 As semiconductor lifecycles increasingly mirror consumer electronics timelines, the pressure on manufacturers in long-life industries to manage component obsolescence is intensifying. Gunter Mößinger of HTV ALTER TECHNOLOGY addressed the issue head-on at Evertiq Expo Tampere – and the picture he painted is one the industry can no longer afford to ignore.
Reliability, automation and EMS strategy take centre stage in Tampere March 24, 2026 Evertiq Expo Tampere returns on 26 March 2026, bringing together Finland’s electronics community for a day focused on semiconductor reliability, advanced manufacturing, automation strategies, and the evolving business landscape of the European EMS industry.
The hidden side of obsolescence: when storage becomes the solution March 18, 2026 When engineers talk about component obsolescence, the conversation usually starts with the same event: the end-of-life notice.
