The 13th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology &High Density Packaging (ICEPT-HDP 2012) will be held in Guilin, China,from August 13 to 16, 2012. The ICEPT-HDP 2012 is organized by Electronic Manufacturing and Packaging Technology Society (EMPT) of Chinese Institute of Electronics (CIE) and co-organized by Guilin Universityof Electronic Technology. As one of the most famous international conferences on electronic packaging technology, the conference has receivedstrong support from IEEE CPMT and active involvement from IMAPS,ASME and iNEMI, and was highly appreciated by China Institute of Electronics and China Association for Science and Technology (CAST).

ICEPT-HDP 2012 is a four-day event, featuring technical sessions, invitedt alks, professional development courses/forums, exhibition, and social networking activities. It aims to cover the latest technological developments in electronic packaging, manufacturing and packaging equipment, and provide opportunities to explore the trends of research and development, as well as business in China. We are looking forward to receiving your papers and meeting you at the conference.
