[September 29, 2005] The EU RoHS / WEEE Directives - "The Clock is Ticking" Six City Tour
Have You Mitigated The Risks Associated With RoHS / WEEE?
The clock is ticking and time is running out and yet data suggests that 40% of American Manufacturers have yet to comply with the EU RoHS and WEEE Directives.
These requirements will impact every company producing or shipping electronic products or components into the European Union. Japan, China, and other countries will follow suit with similar directives, expanding the scope of such impact.
Poor planning and/or non-compliance can erode margins, cause revenue shortfalls, lead to excess inventory, affect product reliability, and result in bad publicity.
This is a unique opportunity to learn from a broad group of industry-recognized experts on how these Directives impact the entire enterprise.
The panel will examine the EU Restriction of the Use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directives and their impact on Electronics OEMs from the legal, design chain, supply chain, reliability, distribution, enterprise software systems requirements, contract manufacturers and OEM perspective.
Following the panel discussion there will be an interactive Q&A session followed by a networking opportunity to meet and engage with each panelist, other knowledge experts and your fellow attendees.
The event is designed to benefit a cross section of executive and departmental managers and employees.
COST - $95.00
