iNEMI

The International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (iNEMI) is a corporate membership organization engaged in pre-competitive research for the electronics industry. iNEMI's mission is to forecast and accelerate improvements in the electronics manufacturing industry for a sustainable future. This industry-led consortium is made up of approximately 100 manufacturers, suppliers, industry associations and consortia, government agencies and universities. iNEMI roadmaps the needs of the electronics industry, identifies gaps in the technology infrastructure, establishes collaborative implementation projects to eliminate these gaps (both business and technical), and stimulates standards activities to speed the introduction of new technologies. The consortium also works with government agencies, universities and other funding agencies to set priorities for longer-term industry needs and R&D initiatives. iNEMI is based in Morrisville, North Carolina (in the Raleigh/Research Triangle Park area), with regional offices in Asia (Shanghai and Japan) Europe (Limerick, Ireland, and the London area).
