These meetings generally consist of presentations by the host organisation, a tour of their facilities and presentations from JEMI members and industry experts. Updates on government funding and collaborative programmes with universities and the progress of JEMI activities such as lobbying are regular features.
The visits are an excellent opportunity for the engineering community to engage with the supply base; promoting innovation, problem solving, cost reductions and networking.
JEMI meetings provide in general an informal networking opportunity for the staff of large and small firms to meet others and act as a central focus for the UK Electronics & Manufacturing industry.
