The MID industry in Asia is organizing and asserting itself ever more vigorously. Thus, the Japanese JMID association, the Japan MID Association founded in 2002, is advocating through various activities for the MID industry to obtain an even stronger presence in the market. On October 11, 2013, the Japan MID Association will hold its JMID Annual Meeting at the Institute of Industrial Science, University of Tokyo. In the past few years, many new technologies for MID manufacturing have been introduced and exchanges have been promoted with foreign associations.
