WIN SOURCE to Exhibit at KES 2026: Supporting Component Sourcing for AI Applications

2026-09-10

WIN SOURCE will exhibit at the 57th Korea Electronics Show (KES 2026) from October 13 to 16, 2026, at COEX in Seoul, South Korea. At Booth B138, the independent electronic component distributor will meet with product developers, manufacturers, and procurement teams to discuss component availability, delivery requirements, and supply planning for intelligent hardware.

Under the theme “AI in Motion,” KES 2026 covers AI transformation, robotics, mobility, digital health and lifestyle, XR and spatial computing, and electronic components and materials. The exhibition focuses on bringing AI into practical use. For hardware teams, this creates a need to plan for the computing, sensing, connectivity, and power components that support these applications, with purchasing aligned to validation and production schedules.

WIN SOURCE Exhibition Highlights

  • Supporting Component Sourcing for On-Device Intelligence

On-device AI products and intelligent terminals require processors, memory, interface ICs, power management devices, and other supporting components. Working from the customer’s defined bill of materials, WIN SOURCE can check stock and lead times and support sample and small-volume orders. This helps teams identify material gaps early and plan hardware validation and pilot production.

  • Coordinating Component Requirements for Robotics

Robot hardware brings together sensing, motion control, drive electronics, and connectivity. A shortage of supporting parts can hold up assembly even when the main devices are available. For requirements such as sensors, controllers, power devices, and connectors, WIN SOURCE can coordinate sourcing and supply around project quantities and delivery milestones, helping procurement teams prioritize parts that affect assembly schedules.

  • Reviewing Procurement Requirements for Mobility Applications

For vehicle electronics and electrification projects, procurement needs to account for the exact part number, package, temperature grade, and customer-defined quality requirements. WIN SOURCE will discuss its supplier evaluation, incoming inspection, and procurement information checks to support purchasing against approved component specifications. Where alternative parts are considered, sourcing support can help customers obtain candidates for engineering assessment and validation.

  • Aligning Inventory with Product Updates and Ongoing Production

Developers of intelligent terminals and connected devices may need to maintain existing models while introducing new versions. By reviewing component requirements across versions alongside available inventory and changing lead times, WIN SOURCE can assist with replenishment and sourcing discontinued parts. This supports order quantity planning and helps reduce situations in which duplicate stock accumulates while critical parts remain unavailable.

Customer Value

Working with WIN SOURCE helps customers:

• Establish a clearer basis for material planning during hardware validation and pilot production

• Reduce separate stock enquiries and delivery coordination across component categories

• Reduce procurement risks arising from mismatched specifications or quality requirements

• Balance new product introduction with production and maintenance needs for existing models
