After three months of slow but con­sec­ut­ive increase, in April 2025 The European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment Indic­ator (FISI), con­duc­ted monthly by the European Foundry Fed­er­a­tion, hits the first obstacle. Com­pared to the data from March 2025, the FISI decreased from 94.6 to 94.0.

The European Foundry Fed­er­a­tion (EFF), the umbrella organ­isa­tion rep­res­ent­ing 4,400 foundries across 22 European coun­tries, is pleased to announce the appoint­ment of Ms. Ain­hoa Ond­ar­za­bal as its new Sec­ret­ary General..
