Abstract
This conference, in the series being run by the National Physical Laboratory to help the electronics assembly industry consider the problems of CFC phase‐out, was essentially an updated repeat of the event held on 30 April, which had been a complete, standing‐room‐only sell‐out. Surprisingly, this repeat performance also attracted a full house and the format used has proved to be the most popular of all the NPL non‐CFC options conferences.
Alpha Metals has announced the appointment of Stan Renals to the position of General Manager, Alpha Singapore.

Electronics exhibitions are the same the world over, very tiring affairs. If your stand is busy, time flies; if not, the strain is more noticeable.

Abstract
Since its early conception, the group has grown from a handful of enthusiastic engineers to the largest trade association in Europe, if not the world, for Surface Mount. As in previous years, SMART will be arranging Seminars, Hands‐on Workshops and Open Forums, giving valuable knowledge for those just entering or those already experienced in SMT. Open forums allow the opportunity for the exchange of information on a variety of different topics, building experience in the technology which would otherwise be unobtainable.

Abstract
A highly successful one‐day conference was the outcome of the combined organisational efforts of the IMF PC Group and Dr Colin Lea at the National Physical Laboratory. Admittedly the theme heads the list of current ‘hot’ topics, but to attract over 250 delegates to a meeting at a busy time of year for the industry was evidence also of a well planned programme and effective promotion.
