HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – January 9, 2019 – Global technology-solutions

hands-on engineering lab at the Consumer Electronics Show 2019, Las Vegas, in a
demonstration of its commitment to best-in-class design tools, resources, and
engineering expertise accessible to innovators and engineers who are creating,
making and managing technology for tomorrow.

Arrow Electronics showcases best-in-class design resources and technical expertise enabling global startups and engineers to scale and excel

“Innovators and engineers in every corner of the world are constantly
at a race not just against current or emerging competitors, but also against themselves:
how to maximize the impact of their products, how to tweak the design to make
user-interface more intuitive, how to scale for more sustainable growth, how to
capture adjacent market opportunities, and how to rapidly broaden their
footprint to other geographical locations… 
At Arrow, we are able to offer the kind of innovation partnership that
it takes to keep these creators and makers stay ahead, with critical resources and
support of a well-connected, incredibly broad global technology company,” said
W. Victor Gao, chief marketing officer of Arrow.

As an example of empowering local innovators
and engineers with access to design tools, resources, and engineering expertise
that they often lack, Arrow established its first open lab at Hong Kong Science
Park in 2016.  The lab has since served as
a center of excellence for 800+ engineers to solve engineering problems and
accelerate idea-to-prototype-to-production journey.  Arrow is currently expanding its global network
of open labs in major technology and innovation hubs around the world, including
China, India, Israel, and the U.S. later in the year.

In 2017, Arrow launched an exclusive partnership with Indiegogo, offering entrepreneurs flash-funding of up
to $50,000 in benefits to help entrepreneurs win at prototyping and
manufacturing innovative products. The company has attracted thousands of startups to the platform in 2018.
