Surface Mount Technology Association (SMTA) ambassadors are representatives of the network who seek to grow membership. All ambassadors should understand the mission statement of the SMTA and know the general membership categories and benefits offered.

The Ambassador Program has been implemented with the same spirit of volunteerism that the SMTA was first founded on. It is based upon “spreading the good word and providing good will” to all potential and future members of the SMTA globally. Michelle Ogihara is the founder and chair of this program.

The SMTA membership is an international network of professionals who build skills, share practical experience and develop solutions in electronic assembly technologies, including microsystems, emerging technologies, and related business operations.
