With more than 100 exhibitors and over 900 attendees, it brought together the region\u2019s engineering and manufacturing community for high\u2011quality conversations and genuine collaboration. For CS Electronics, the event delivered strong engagement with engineers, buyers and project teams seeking to strengthen their supply chains and improve interconnect reliability. We also connected with several new customers whose technical requirements align closely with our capabilities, setting the stage for promising long\u2011term partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, we\u2019re preparing for Southern Manufacturing &amp; Electronics this February, where we\u2019ll be continuing discussions sparked at MENE25 and reconnecting with partners from across the UK. It\u2019s always a highlight in the calendar, and we\u2019re excited to meet new faces, share our expertise and support upcoming projects.
