 Tantalum Supply Conference: Nov. 17
EICC and GeSI will host a conference November 17 in Redmond, WA for members and Tantalum suppliers. The conference follows an organizational meeting held in Chandler, AZ on Sep. 17 to discuss challenges related to tracking and tracing tantalum through the ICT supply chain.
The next meeting is intended to identify tracking and tracing approaches used by other industries to avoid use of "conflict" minerals. Meeting participants will also identify a preferred approach for the ICT industry.
Contact Brad Cameron if you have questions or want to attend the meeting.
