WASHINGTON – The latest attempt to address American competitiveness will take place here in mid June, in concert with a series of coordinated lobbying efforts.

Formerly known as IPC Capitol Hill Day, the Summit on American Competitiveness will be held June 15-16 and combines targeted presentations with legislative and regulatory briefings. Attendees will also pay visits to various members of Congress to discuss issues that directly impact the US electronics industry’s ability to compete globally.

Apart from the congressional visits, a panel of to-be-named senior electronics executives will share steps they have taken to gain an advantage in the global marketplace. Information on resources such as the Federal Trade Adjustment Assistance Program also will be discussed, and the international factors impacting the industry’s competitiveness will be highlighted.

IPC said the legislator meetings will focus on tax code modifications, future military and aerospace needs, and business regulations.
