From April 29 to May 2, the Component Dynamics team attended the renowned PCB East 2025 Conference and Exhibition in Boxboro, Massachusetts. This annual event is hosted by the Printed Circuit Engineering Association (PCEA) and serves as a key meeting point for professionals across the electronics and PCB design industries.
A Legacy of Innovation
PCB East has roots that date back to the founding of the Institute for Printed Circuits (IPC) in 1957, and over the decades, it has grown into one of the industry’s most respected forums for education, networking, and technological advancement. This marked Component Dynamics’ second year exhibiting, following a successful debut in 2024.
Impressive Attendance
PCB East unites OEMs and contract manufacturers, especially those in PCB design, fabrication, and assembly, as well as electronic component suppliers. Attendance this year saw strong growth, with exhibit-only visitors increasing by 15% year-over-year, and total attendance up nearly 4%.
The conference creates a forum to discuss new technologies and opportunities paired with educational opportunities, networking and professional development.
