iNEMI and IPC are collaborating to identify and address key circularity challenges in electronics manufacturing. This initiative gained momentum following a successful workshop at the Electronics Goes Green (EGG) 2024 conference in Berlin, setting the stage for a series of focused efforts to tackle the industry's most pressing circularity issues. As a direct result of these industry discussions, four discussion groups are launching in September.

The Economic Incentives Working Group will explore the financial aspects of circularity, including potential return on investment (ROI) and other motivators for adopting circular practices. If you want to get involved with this or any of the working groups, please contact Kelly Scanlon at IPC (kellyscanlon@ipc.org).
