Promote your company internationally

• At our networking events and conferences through the regions and nationally.

 Stay in touch

• This is a network for busy people, and you'll find us easy to do business with! If you want to know what is going on in the electronics sector in the UK, the Electronics KTN is the network to join.
• Meet the movers and shakers - learn from their experience
• Keep up to date with the latest technologies and developments
• Put your company on the UK map of the electronics value chain

 The UK is one of the centres of excellence for electronic design and product development.

• Build the strength of the sector, and promote our capabilities globally, by joining and participating in the Electronics KTN activities, sharing knowledge and developing learning across peer groups

• Regardless of where you sit on electronics value chain, and regardless of your size, we want to put you on the map and demonstrate the UK's talent and strength in the electronics sector

 Access new markets, find new business opportunities and leads

• With the Electronics KTN's unique relationship with Government departments and agencies, you'll have the chance to participate in our "Meet the Market" brokerage events
• We pull together technology users to enable you, the technology providers, to demonstrate how your technology can be applied to new markets, products or services. Examples of these events will include workshops with the 2012 Games, Defence (MoD), Healthcare and Security

 Develop your capability to collaborate, increasing your opportunity to win new business and develop new business partnerships

• Acquiring all the skills and resources necessary to compete globally can be expensive, risky and place significant demands on cash flow, especially for smaller organisations where bandwidth is already at a premium. Businesses large and small are finding that the practical way to share these risks is to develop collaborative partnerships, and the Electronics KTN facilitates and brokers this activity
• Our networking events will be designed not only to develop your teams knowledge to understand best practise and the impact of emerging or new technologies, but also to find new business partners and opportunities through our market access programme
• We also recognise that developing the skills to find collaborative partners may be new to many organisations, in a similar way that the power of networking is not always fully understood. As members of the Electronics KTN, we'll give you free access to powerful collaboration tools such as Interwise, giving you the capability to share information and communicate with your partners in a secure virtual environment

 We'll give you access to a Knowledge Pool, specifically tailored to meet the needs of the sector

• Utilising Autonomy software, we'll pull information from across the web, relevant to our industry needs
• Think of this as your own Electronics Search Engine. We'll have over 50 spider programmes drawing data over from relevant sites creating a unique database. You can even recommend your favourite URL for us to draw information from
• This will give you simple, easy access to information to help you develop your business
• Included in this Knowledge Pool will be access to presentations and content from the Electronics Regulatory Group, giving you direct access to content delivered by Government Departments or European Agencies concerning new legislation. Replay these presentations at a time convenient to you through the Interwise collaboration tool. Keep informed regarding the latest regulations and legislation to impact the industry. Comment on their impact to your business through our feedback portals and forums. Your voice will be heard and this route will give you an opportunity to feedback your views to the policy makers

Keep up to date with new, or emerging technologies or business practices

• Seminars, events, conferences and webinars will be delivered regionally and nationally focusing on topics across our knowledge themes:
  • Embedded Systems
  • High Frequency RF
  • System in Package
  • Component Obsolescence
  • Supply Chain Management
  • Thermal Management
  • Open Innovation
  • Product Development

• We hope to give you an unfair advantage by ensuring that our sector is the best informed and knowledgeable network in the world!

 Easy access to Universities and Academia

• We're aware that business and academia often talk a different language, and it can be difficult to bring together these groups to exploit new technology
• We'll provide the "translation"; services to bring relevant, market ready IP or technology to our members with easy signposting and accessible knowledge sharing events
