As the doors to the Electronic Component Show 2025 close, Mark Leary summarises the event, shares visitor and exhibitor feedback and looks forward to 2026.

This year’s Electronic Component Show took place on Thursday 18 September at the Kassam Stadium, Oxford. Sold out for the third year in a row and including the popular Seminar Program, ECS 2025 attracted just under 600 visitors, creating a real buzz from opening to closing time.

Exhibitor and visitor feedback was extremely positive with attendees enjoying the mix of exhibitors, complimentary hot drinks/snacks, plus £5 food voucher for the on-site catering.

One visitor commented ‘ECS is a lovely and enjoyable alternative to big trade shows which are intimidating, have costly car parking/food and overall, are not very enjoyable’.

A number of exhibitors took direct orders at the show and quality sales leads were generated.

Electronics Sourcing’s publisher and founder, Mark Leary, said “This year’s ECS has been a complete success and it’s so rewarding and satisfying when you hear such positive feedback from visitors and exhibitors about the show.

“This one-day event really offers a time effective solution of meeting new, current or potential suppliers all under one roof in one day. Now that ECS has been 100 per cent sold out, plus the fact that visitor numbers are increasing year-on-year, MMG Publishing is evaluating the location and considering a larger venue for 2026.

“All will be revealed shortly. I would like to thank all visitors, exhibitors, seminar speakers and the MMG team for putting together the best ECS one-day event to date since its launch in 2012.”
