SecondaryMarket.news has been invited to join an Expert Talk with industry veteran Bob Snyder on Tuesday 9 September 10:30 AM at IFA Global Markets in Berlin. The session will explore the unfiltered truth about the secondary electronics market, asking who is really winning in this so-called new gold rush. The conversation will also highlight how industry players are building consumer trust, what role the Right to Repair movement is playing, and where the next major disruptions could emerge.
Focus on secondary electronics trends
The Expert Talks are held on the stage in Hall 26 at IFA Global Markets, which has become the European hub for business-to-business sourcing. With more than 550 exhibitors and over 8,500 traders expected, it is one of the most relevant meeting places for companies active in consumer electronics and mobile technology. Bob Snyder’s talk will be a highlight for anyone tracking the trajectory of the secondary electronics market.
Growth beyond Apple iPhones
While much of the secondary market has been defined by the Apple iPhone and other leading smartphones, attention is shifting. Industry experts suggest that future growth frontiers will extend into tablets, laptops, gaming devices and even connected home electronics. The Expert Talk will examine how companies are preparing for this diversification, and which sectors may provide the strongest opportunities in the next three to five years.
Europe’s largest sourcing platform
IFA Global Markets is a dedicated B2B sourcing platform that runs in parallel to the main IFA Berlin exhibition. It was created to meet demand for a hub where OEMs, ODMs, suppliers and retailers can connect. Unlike the main IFA event, which is public-facing, IFA Global Markets is designed exclusively for business. It has grown into Europe’s largest B2B sourcing platform, providing supply chain solutions, sourcing opportunities and networking in a professional environment.
The next big disruption ahead
The Expert Talk will also deliver a prediction on the single biggest disruption expected to shake the secondary electronics market within the next three to five years. Whether it comes from technology shifts, regulatory changes or new global supply chain dynamics, this insight will be of great interest to everyone engaged in reuse, refurbishment and repair.
