This valuable resource is for all segments of the electronics interconnect industry. What follows is an excerpt from Chapter 1: How the NPI Process Has Changed and Where We're Going.

Adversity drives focus, realization, and then inno- vation. This is especially true in manufac- turing, which has felt the effects of recent challenges. For decades, manufacturing has been overly focused on short-term business objectives, with little regard for risk and adaptability. Innovators today realize that there is no way back, that we must embrace the intelligence that we must have learned.
