Following the sharp downturn in the European and global electronics industry at the end of 2008 and in the first half of 2009 the market has recovered. Led initially by the emerging markets the recovery gained momentum with the industry showing strong growth in all regions. However, in the final months of 2010 there were signs that growth was slowing and with the outlook for US, the major Western European economies and Japan being downgraded in the second quarter of 2011, along with the impact on the export led emerging markets, growth is expected to slow in the second half of the year which will continue into the first half of 2012. In Central and Eastern Europe, the electronics industry has benefited from the transfer of Volume production from Western Europe and the inward investment by Asian manufacturers looking to establish a production base in close proximity to the key European markets. In the future it is anticipated that the region will also benefit from the transfer of production of lower volume products in areas such as industrial, medical, high-end communications and automotive.

To take advantage of these opportunities will require a clear understanding of the current structure of the electronics industry, how it has developed on a country and regional level and how it fits globally.
