As material shortages push lead times for advanced printed circuit boards towards 2028, four-year-old PCB supplier Confidee has built its strategy around the opposite of locking customers into rigid commitments: complete transparency and a clear policy allowing customers to cancel or rebalance production without damaging the relationship. That is according to board member Didrik Bech.

The unprecedented wave of investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure is transforming the global electronics supply chain, with growing consequences for PCB manufacturers, material suppliers and OEMs worldwide. According to new research from in4ma and EMSNOW, demand generated by hyperscale data centre operators is driving up PCB prices, stretching lead times and redirecting manufacturing capacity towards AI applications.

AiRob-Piotr-Owczarek-Krakow-2026

Traditional automation performs best in a highly organised environment. Products must always arrive in the same position, production lines need to maintain a fixed rhythm, and individual tasks should remain predictable and repetitive. However, the European electronics industry is increasingly operating under completely different conditions. Short production runs, frequent product changes, component shortages and unpredictable order schedules can make a factory resemble a living organism rather than a precisely calibrated machine. Speaking at Evertiq Expo Kraków 2026, Piotr Owczarek, CEO of AiRob, argued that machine vision, 3D modelling and artificial intelligence could make robots better suited to this complex environment.

Europe's printed circuit board industry is having a moment. Defence spending is up, AI is driving demand, and policymakers are finally talking about electronics as strategic infrastructure. But as I discovered in a recent EMS@C-Level conversation with Vytautas Ilgunas, Chief Commercial Officer at TLT PCB, and Raymond Goh, Chief Operating Officer at Confidee, the comeback is running headfirst into a supply chain that we spent the last two decades hollowing out. The demand is real. The capacity to serve it, particularly in materials, is not.

Some conference presentations end with the applause. Others begin there. They continue over coffee, in conversations between exhibition stands, and in the photographs people take before the final slide disappears from the screen. That was certainly the case during Evertiq Expo Berlin, where one presentation continued to resonate long after the audience had left the conference hall.
