Ibiquity Digital said a recent HD Radio seminar in Shenzhen, China had to be enlarged due to interest from Asian component and product manufacturers.
Held on the eve of the Hong Kong Electronics Fair, about 300 executives, product planners, design engineers and production managers attended to hear about product certification, factory setup, product design and planning.
Ibiquity partner companies that attended included test and support services, module manufacturers, as well as brands from China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, all developing HD Radio products.
As reported here last week, Ibiquity says demand for HD Radio receivers has resulted in a doubling of partner manufacturing capacity in Asia in the past year.
