ABOUT

The American Electronics Manufacturing Summit (AES) builds on the legacy of the Generis American Manufacturing Summit (manusummit.com), bringing the executive-level format to the electronics sector. This leadership-focused, in-person electronics event connects senior leaders across electronics manufacturing, supply chain, and operations with innovative solution providers to share what’s working now and what’s next in the electronics manufacturing industry.

Join 130+ senior executives from electronics brands to discuss emerging trends, industry challenges, and practical strategies across advanced manufacturing, Industry 4.0, automation, quality, and supply chain resilience. Unlike a typical trade show, this summit is designed for meaningful conversations, real-world insights, and high-impact networking.

Request access to view the full agenda and see who you’ll meet onsite. If you’re looking for a high-impact electronics manufacturing conference for executives, AES is where leaders connect, learn, and lead.
