Two introductions for chris’ interview with andy shaunessey
16th September ,2026
The electronics industry is changing rapidly, and companies that can offer complete manufacturing solutions are becoming increasingly valuable to OEMs, EMS providers, and product developers looking to simplify their supply chains. At this year’s PCB East, one of the industry’s premier technical conferences and exhibitions, PCB Technologies North America’s Field Application Engineer, Chris LaCroix, sat down with PCB007’s Andy Shaughnessy to discuss why PCB Technologies is attracting growing attention throughout North America.
The conversation highlights a company that has evolved far beyond the traditional role of a printed circuit board fabricator. PCB Technologies delivers a fully integrated manufacturing solution that supports customers from initial design and engineering through PCB fabrication, advanced PCB assembly, and sophisticated microelectronics manufacturing. This comprehensive approach allows customers to work with a single technology partner throughout the entire product development and manufacturing process, reducing complexity while improving quality, speed, and collaboration.
During the interview, LaCroix explains how PCB Technologies combines decades of engineering expertise with some of the world’s most advanced manufacturing capabilities. From high-density interconnect (HDI) technology and rigid-flex circuits to RF, microwave, aerospace, defense, medical, and high-reliability applications, the company continues to invest in the technologies that are shaping the future of electronics.
The discussion also offers an exciting look at PCB Technologies’ ambitious growth strategy for North America. LaCroix shares that the company is firmly committed to expanding its presence across the United States and Canada, including plans to complete several strategic acquisitions during the next twelve months. These investments are intended to strengthen local engineering support, expand manufacturing capabilities, and provide customers with even greater responsiveness while leveraging the resources of one of the world’s most technologically advanced PCB manufacturers.
For engineers, purchasing professionals, OEMs, EMS companies, and anyone interested in the future of electronics manufacturing, this interview provides valuable insight into where the printed circuit board industry is headed. It also demonstrates why PCB Technologies is positioning itself as more than a PCB supplier—it is becoming a complete technology and manufacturing partner dedicated to helping customers succeed in an increasingly competitive global marketplace.
Watch the interview to learn how PCB Technologies is bringing world-class engineering, advanced manufacturing, and an aggressive North American growth strategy together to create one of the industry’s most exciting success stories.
