Our View of the Sector
Electro-ecosystem
The "ecosystem" that encapsulates the electrical and electronics industry includes a variety of different company types, ranging from groups that design and manufacture basic electrical and electronic components (e.g., memories, transistors, power supply, etc.); those that assemble these components to create electronic appliances (e.g., personal computers, photographic systems, televisions, etc.); to those companies that belong to a completely different business sector (e.g., aerospace, medical, automotive, etc.) and use electronic components and appliances, often software-driven, to meet specific needs in a given product.
Increasingly high demands
Technology in the electronics industry evolves rapidly, ever improving, updating, innovating. This fast-track to new improved product versions means shorter adoption curves for new technologies and reduces end product lifecycles. It is therefore essential that design and development processes be at maximum efficiency in order to release products on to the market in the minimum possible time and manage their lifecycles effectively.
Today's electronics market is overflowing with potential: embedded systems and software are cropping up in a range of other business sectors to automate manual functions or replace mechanical control systems. The need for innovation means that companies are developing increasing complex systems and, given customer expectations concerning reliability and its worth, cost control has become an issue of the utmost importance.
