In May 2022 SMTconnect, formerly SMT Hybrid Packaging, took place in Nuremberg. In total the event organiser welcomed around 312 exhibitors over the 3 days of the trade fair (2019: 417 exhibitors) and over 9,000 visitors (2019: 13,050 visitors) to SMT connect in Nuremberg from 10th to12th May 2022.
In fact this year the Christian Koenen Group didn’t have its own trade fair stand, but despite this we supported the event actively by means of a podium discussion.
Together with Dr. Tanja Braun (Fraunhofer IZM), Michael Zahn (Christian Koenen GmbH), Harald Eppinger (KohYoung) and Torsten Vegelahn (Asys Group) the topic of: "SMT meets Semiconductor Packaging" was discussed as regards what new perspectives a growing semiconductor market in Europe means for the SMT sector.
