I-Connect007’s Patricia Goldman Inducted into IPC Hall of Fame
March 15, 2016 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
The Association Connecting Electronics Industries—IPC—awarded Patricia “Patty” Goldman it’s highest honor, the Raymond E. Pritchard Hall of Fame Award, in recognition of her outstanding contributions and distinguished service to IPC and the advancement of the electronics manufacturing industry. Goldman received her award at a special ceremony today at the opening day of IPC APEX EXPO 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada, being held at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Goldman, managing editor of The PCB Magazine, has more than three decades of experience in the PCB industry and has volunteered countless hours to IPC. During this time she has been an active participant in numerous committees and chairman of several, including the Technical Activities Executive Committee (TAEC). Among her past honors, Patty was recognized in 1984 with the IPC President's Award for her contributions to IPC and the industry. She is also the author of numerous technical papers on subjects including bondable gold, pink ring, direct metallization, electrophoretic photoresist and flat glass for improved signal integrity.
“It still seems a little unreal to me because all of the people that have received this—people I have looked up to, that have done so much for the industry and have influenced so much. Several I would consider mentors, including Bernie Kessler, Don Dinella and Dieter Bergman.”
Goldman’s career in PCB manufacturing began as an engineering associate with Western Electric’s R&D center in New Jersey, and includes process engineering, sales and marketing of specialty chemicals (Enthone and OMG/Electrochemicals), electrodeposited resists (PPG), and fiberglass fabric (Dielectric Solutions LLC). In addition to serving as chair of TAEC, Goldman has chaired both the Process Control and Woven Glass Reinforcement TG committees, and she has been an active participant on both the Video Steering and the Technical Program committees.
“I can’t stress enough how important it is to volunteer, to work on a committee or subcommittee. It’s vital that people get involved, and not just sit in a room and listen. Not only can you help write and develop a standard that is important to you, but you can actually participate and have an effect and influence on how things are done and written."
Congratulations Patty!
