Where is Vietnam Headed? APDA Promotes Supply Chain and Manufacturing Webinar, July 22

The Audio Product Development Alliance (APDA) is hosting a new live webinar focused on sourcing from Vietnam and the current uncertainty in global trade. During this new APDA presentation, Bruce Crompton, a veteran of Asia’s manufacturing and supply chain with over 25 years of experience spanning China and Vietnam, will provide a unique perspective about how Vietnam is evolving and the opportunities for the audio industry. What’s changing in Vietnam and where is it headed? How is Vietnam reacting to US tariffs and global realignment?

MISCO, the Minnesota-based speaker manufacturer now celebrating over 75 years in operation, has announced the launch of new production lines using collaborative robotics (cobot) for microspeaker manufacturing at its Energy Park facility. This development positions MISCO as the first US manufacturer to mass-produce microspeakers — audio components under two inches in diameter — using cobot technology.

The Audio Product Development Alliance (APDA) is hosting a new live talk to discuss the current uncertainty in global manufacturing and trade. Audio manufacturing, tariffs, challenges, and strategies to manage a business in an unprecedented and unpredictable environment are the motivation for this conversation with Ben Yeung, Executive Director and Chief Strategy Officer at Fujikon Industrial, in Hong Kong. Join the live conversation next Tuesday, May 6.
