BONUS - What's the SCOOP - 2022 Trends with Siemens Industry Software's Oren Manor

EMS@C-LEVEL · 19 Dec 2021 · 13m

What this episode covers

Oren Manor, Director of Business Development Electronics Manufacturing at Siemens Industry Software, discusses 2022 trends in electronics manufacturing, focusing on sustainability, supply chain resilience, and the shift to electric vehicles. He explains how electronics is facing increased scrutiny for its carbon footprint and e-waste, driving the need for energy monitoring in Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and 'shift left' sustainability decisions in design. Manor highlights the massive increase in electronic content in EVs, driven by regulatory mandates for commercial fleets, and the resulting supply chain challenges where nearly all components are now long-lead items requiring strategic sourcing and early data integration from suppliers like SiliconFrame.
