Grab your headphones and hit play to hear our conversation with Gerard van Dierendon from Unimicron, a global PCB manufacturing leader. We venture into a deep discussion about the shifting trends in manufacturing industries. Notably, we touch on the topic of reshoring, which has been fueled by geopolitical concerns and supply chain security, but we find that not all industries share the same sentiments.
Sustainability is an issues and Gerard reveals the need to provide CO2 footprints with their boards. He shares how their German facility has embraced these demands, ensuring transparency in their CO2 accounting, which includes logistics and electricity consumption. As we navigate the European skill shortages, we explore how automation is being leveraged to combat this issue. Listen in as Gerard gives us a unique perspective on how Unimicron has maintained a loyal workforce amidst these challenges.
