ElectroneX 2024 – Electronics Design & Assembly Expo

Design, Develop, Manufacture with the Latest Solutions

You are invited to attend Australia’s major dedicated expo and conference for the electronics industry. In 2024 Electronex returns to Sydney at Rosehill Gardens Event Centre.

The competitive future of practically every Australian industry sector is increasingly dependent on the utilization and integration of the latest electronics into all aspects of manufacturing, production, assembly, systems development, maintenance and service.

At Electronex designers, managers, engineers, technicians, manufacturers and system integrators can discuss their specific requirements with industry experts and see, test and compare the latest products and solutions to future proof their business.

This year, Excelpoint will be showcasing our solutions at Booth C9. See you there!
