Exhibitionsand conferences

摘要

This was the 11th world printed circuit conference and it was the first for China to host. It is now formed by the World Electronics Connections Council (WECC) of PCB organisations. David Bergman is the first Chairman of WECC, made up of six organisations, namely the IPC, EIPC, JPCS, KPCA, TPCA&IPCA and their Presidents are seen in the photo. The opening ceremonies are lavish affairs that always prelude the event, and this one was no exception, with attendance of nearly 1,000 people with almost 700 pre-registered. The host country has the advantage of being able to supply a larger number of the technical papers for the conference and of the papers presented; the breakdown by PCB organization was as shown in Table I.
