He is a twenty-year member and past chairman of the Board of Directors of the IPC (Association Connecting Electronics Industries).
Steve commented, “We are extremely excited to welcome Charlie Capers and the Trilogy Circuits team to the Zentech family. The transaction was driven in large part by requests from our established military customers for Zentech to deliver our highly certified, high-complexity processing model to the Southwest region as they all have significant operations in this vibrant geography.
