On Tuesday October 9th, the European Regional Council (ERC) organized a networking event during SEMICON Europa. The event was in the form of a reception with excellent food and drinks, where collegues from all sectors of the secondary equipment industry could meet in a pleasant atmosphere. The event was hosted by Ascent'tec Europe BV and was sponsored by AECI, Ascent'tec, Techlink, AG Semi, Retronix and ASML, all SEC/N member companies.

The reception was attended by approximately 60 persons, which was a bit less then last year, but was to be expected due to the change in location of the SEMICON show from Munich to Stuttgart, Germany.
In any case, it didn't spoil the pleasant atmosphere, which was further enhanced with a raffle for which Barrie VanDevender, our vice-president, performed the drawing and presentation of the prizes.

One of the cornerstones of SEC/N is to enhance the contacts between the various players in the secondary industry and to enhance cooperation between the members. These networking events are an excellent tool to achieve these goals and SEMICON Europa was an example of that. It is obvious that the cooperation between the members, in this case the European ones, has improved significantly in the past couple of years and it is the firm intention of the ERC to continue these efforts to bring the members together. Recently we could also welcome some new members in Europe, and they will be actively involved as this process further develops.

The ERC would like to thank Ascent'tec for their hospitality and all the sponsors for their contribution.
