HERNDON, VARegistrations for iNEMI’s April 5 roadmap workshop are due March 28, the consortium said today.

The full-day meeting, co-sponsored by Fraunhofer IZM, IEEE’s CPMT (Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology) Society and IMAPS Europe, takes place at the ICM Congress Hall at Munich Messe. 

It coincides with SemiCon Europa, also in Munich.

The workshop will give attendees an advance review of draft chapters of the 2007 iNEMI Roadmap, including two key market segments and eight of the 19 technology and infrastructure areas covered:

Product sectors include automotive products and consumer/portable products. Technology areas include Packaging, board assembly, organic substrates, ceramic substrates, sensors, test, inspection and measurement, final assembly and environmentally conscious electronics.

Attendees' input be be incorporated in the 2007 Roadmap.

The registration fee is $200 and includes a copy of the 2007 iNEMI Roadmap CD. Registration deadline is March 28.  For information click here.
