NEPCON Ramblings - May 2007 (Directive Decoder)

NEPCON Ramblings - May 2007

If you will allow me, just a quick plug for NEPCON which this year falls between May 15th and 17th at Birmingham NEC.
Electronics Yorkshire has arranged a series of seminars each day and have invited me to ramble on about China RoHS at 2PM Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Electronics Yorkshire support and assist the growth of the electronics sector throughout Yorkshire and the Humber by:
+ Providing an industry dedicated training centre
+ Making some of the very latest, leading edge equipment available for use / training etc
+ Operating a membership network for electronics businesses
Why not have a look at their excellent web-site and see
what they can do for you: http://www.electronicsyorkshire.org.uk
They will also host a seminar around design for manufacture with IPC standards featuring specialists Peter Burnley and Eric Hinsley.

Mark Shayler and Leigh Holloway, from environmental consultancy specialists eco3, will also offer words of wisdom on the RoHS, WEEE, REACH, EuP and Battery Directives throughout the day.
These guys are vastly experienced in eco design and are experts in understanding the business implications of legislation and can assist in formulating effective strategies: http://www.ecothree.com/

I look forward to seeing you there.
