35 Years of IBF – Over 30 Years of TARGET 3001!


Join us in shaping the future of electronics design

This year, we at IBF are celebrating our 35th anniversary – a milestone we proudly look back on. Since 1990, we have been developing PCB CAD software with passion, innovation, and a keen ear for the needs of our users. Since 1993, TARGET – then known as "V3" – has been on the market. What began as a pioneering project has evolved into a powerful and practical solution used by thousands of engineers in industry, academia, and research. Our mission has always remained the same: To make complex technologies accessible and easy to use – without unnecessary clutter, but with well-thought-out features and high usability.

Facing new challenges – we support your productivity

Looking ahead, we continue to develop new features, optimize workflows, and integrate modern technologies. The potential of artificial intelligence is now a major focus for us. Yet one thing will never change: TARGET 3001! is a tool that adapts to you – not the other way around. We thank you, our loyal users and partners, for your trust, your ideas, and your continued inspiration. Together, we are shaping the next chapters of electronics development – intuitive, efficient, and future-ready.
