They will discuss pros and cons of manufacturing in the two emerging markets.
As the costs of manufacturing in China continue to rise, OEMs and EMS providers are turning their attention to India, both as a market and low-cost manufacturing location. The challenges are immense, ranging from poor physical infrastructure to an immature supply and manufacturing base. Is Vietnam a better alternative?
The Webinar will cover highlights from TFI’s research report, “India: The Next Big Opportunity.” Topics to be discussed: selling and manufacturing trends in India; companies currently manufacturing in India; key factors for investing in India; challenges to operating in India; OEM company recommendations; EMS strategies for investing in India. Also, Craft will share insights gained from his experience setting up and running the first North American-based, state-of-the art ISO9001: 2000 and AS9100: 2004 certified electronics facility in Vietnam.
