IMI, Inc. the specialty fabricator of printed circuit boards and substrates announced that the company celebrates its 50th anniversary in May 2021 making it one of the oldest circuit board fabricators in America.
Founded as Integrated Memories Incorporated in 1971 by several successful Boston area entrepreneurs led by William McConnell, the company was originally an OEM producer of memory cards. The company’s initial product offering was a line of CROM 48-bit 2k memory cards for what then was advanced computing applications. As memory products transitioned from cards to chips the company refocused as a fabricator of printed circuit boards and in 1979 changed its name to IMI, Inc.
