December 2017		An other year is over. We thank all our customer for their support to become the greatest year in INELCO's history. Even some old business was stopped, because of new orientation, we still had a great growth. Thanks to new ideas and major investments, we were able to record a record year and further strengthen our market position during the year. This encourages us to invest even more in planning for 2018. New breakthrough products, a design center outside of China, more employees and changes in the manufacturing process will change our image in 2018. Let yourself be surprised. We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year!

May 2017		Statement regerading sponsoring by the CEO: When I met the management of the MTIS in Friedrichsdorf first time, I was really impressed. MTIS is an educational establishment far beyond public schools, focused on its missions, to develop students into an acting part of the future, in the city of Philipp Reis the inventor of first telephone. In addition MTIS has a very successful chess academy. Chess the game of strategy, Personally, I am one of the founders of INELCO, the most unknown manufacturer of telephone and data connectors, which quickly became one of the top 10 companies in our markets. Besides hard work, we came there, because our visions, missions and strategies have so many similarities with MTIS that it is a must for us to take over the sponsorship of the MTIS chess player Dominik Laux. Finally, this partnership remains MTIS, Dominic and INELCO under the premise: the game continues!

March 2016		INELCO signed contract for joint-venture for a new business segment, which will start to become available in 2018. Up to that point a new production line and international approvals need to be established.
January 2016		The year 2015 was as all years before very successful. Even the long term orders were swapped into short term orders, by customers, the business went more than good. For INELCO this change was challenging, but the lead times could be shortened by more automation in factory. The other challenge was the downfall of the Euro. It was the first time that INELCO wasn't able to absorb the increase of cost by automation, only. Therefore INELCO had to moderately increase prices for most of the products. Looking to competition the increase was lower and the lead time is shorter for most of the products. 2015 was challenging, but finally the forecast was blast in a very positive way. The orderbook and the information from customers are giving INELCO a very positive prospect for 2016.

January 2015		The year 2014 ended as it started, with full order books and a lot of inquiries. The business increased significantly and prospect for 2015 is showing a continuing growth above industry average. Beside increasing automation and capacity in our factory we have some plans to realize in 2015; like building a new factory in China to have more space to grow, a new office building in Europe, new product developments and a new marketing campaign. 2015 will be for us another challenging year on the way to our main target, to be a Bishop Top 100 connector company within 10 years from founding. We have to say thank you to all our customers who worked with us together for a joint success.
