ABOUT US
Welcome to Sensors + Testing Monthly
Sensors + Testing Monthly is part of Components Source Network, an independent, expert-led global B2B publishing platform spanning 22 individual niche technology sites, including 11 expert-led e-news sites and 11 corresponding 100% peer-nominated, invitation-only e-marketplaces.
Powered by the nearly three decades of B2B high-tech industry experience behind Embassy Global, LLC, we provide technically informed coverage of the news, technologies, companies, research and market developments influencing sensors, instrumentation, test and measurement, calibration, metrology, data acquisition, condition monitoring, simulation and related engineering markets. Small business advocacy, supply chain diversity and sustainability are also longstanding priorities within our editorial coverage.
Our readers include engineers, manufacturers, researchers, technical buyers, procurement professionals, laboratory specialists, systems integrators, distributors and other decision-makers working throughout the global sensors, instrumentation and testing industries. Sensors + Testing Monthly began with a single follower and today reaches more than 45,000 industry professionals organically, with consistent monthly audience growth of approximately 30–50%. That growth has been built steadily through relevant editorial coverage, industry participation and the relationships that have developed around the publication.
Across Components Source Network, our specialized e-news and corresponding e-marketplace sites form a living data ecosystem that includes more than 31,500 independently peer-nominated experts across 40+ countries. Developed over nine years, the Network is organized around distinct technical markets while recognizing the technologies, applications, customers, suppliers and sales channels that connect them.
Components Source Network was founded and developed by Molly Bakewell Chamberlin, Founder, Publisher & Editor-in-Chief of Components Source Network and Founder, President & Chief Growth Architect of Embassy Global. With nearly three decades of experience across B2B high-tech manufacturing and engineering, Molly has worked with more than 200 technology brands worldwide across sensors and testing, instrumentation, electronic components, semiconductors, industrial automation and robotics, IIoT, machine vision, motion control, process control, photonics and optoelectronics, aerospace and defense, battery and electrification technologies, AI and quantum technologies, and industrial sustainability. She has also been a longtime advocate within the global industry community for small business, women in STEM, merit-based supply chain diversity and sustainability.
That experience brings a practical industry perspective to the publication, particularly in markets where accurate measurement, testing and validation directly influence product performance, safety, reliability and compliance. We also recognize that important developments often come from smaller specialist companies, independent laboratories, research organizations and focused engineering teams, and believe they should be considered on their technical and industry merit rather than the size or familiarity of the organization behind them.

Our Editorial Approach
Editorial coverage within Sensors + Testing Monthly is independently selected by the Editor-in-Chief based on technical relevance, timeliness, editorial value and fit with the publication. We consider company and industry news, product and technology developments, application and project news, research and development activity, expert-contributed articles, case studies, application notes, technical white papers, company profiles, supplier spotlights and other relevant technical or market developments.
Our approach is expert-led, with an emphasis on accuracy, context and information that is genuinely useful to professionals working within these industries. We do not simply repeat promotional language or unqualified claims. Longstanding experience across the technologies, applications, customers, markets and sales channels we cover helps inform our editorial judgment, alongside the knowledge of engineers, laboratory professionals, researchers, manufacturers, systems integrators, distributors, metrology specialists and other practitioners working directly within the field.
We also follow developments in reliability, asset life extension, responsible manufacturing, energy efficiency, predictive maintenance, materials stewardship, supply chain resilience and environmental compliance where they have meaningful technical, industry or commercial relevance.
Our Connection to Sensors + Testing Solutions Finder
Sensors + Testing Monthly works alongside Sensors + Testing Solutions Finder, its corresponding Components Source Network expert e-marketplace. Although closely connected within the Network, the two serve distinctly different purposes.
Sensors + Testing Monthly is an independent e-news publication covering technologies, companies, applications, research and industry developments according to editorial merit. Sensors + Testing Solutions Finder is a separate, 100% peer-nominated, invitation-only B2B expert e-marketplace. Companies must first be independently nominated by industry peers and accepted for inclusion before participating in the Finder ecosystem.
Sensors + Testing Solutions Finder helps engineers, laboratory professionals, procurement teams, technical buyers, systems integrators and other industry partners identify recognized experts across sensing technologies, instrumentation, data acquisition, calibration and metrology, test and measurement equipment, predictive maintenance, condition monitoring, NDT and inspection, simulation, independent laboratories, engineering consulting and technical distribution. Visitors can browse the marketplace directly or request recommendations for Featured Experts suited to specific sourcing, engineering, laboratory, testing, integration, distribution or commercial requirements. Participating companies can also gain additional organic discovery, expert positioning, direct 1:1 lead matching, sales-channel introductions and industry visibility.
Together, the two platforms provide complementary ways to discover relevant technical information and recognized industry expertise while maintaining a clear distinction between independent editorial coverage and e-marketplace participation.
Editorial consideration for Sensors + Testing Monthly is open to relevant organizations throughout the sensors, instrumentation, testing and measurement industries and is not dependent upon participation in Sensors + Testing Solutions Finder. Peer-nominated experts within Components Source Network may receive editorial priority where appropriate. As all submissions are considered according to their individual relevance, technical value, timeliness and fit with the publication, unpaid editorial coverage cannot be guaranteed.
