A few months ago, we launched our “Just Ask” series with Happy Holden. Many readers took us up on it, sending all manner of questions for happy to answer.
Now, Joe Fjelstad—inventor, technologist, author, and Flex007 columnist—is getting in on the action. Here’s your chance to pick Joe’s brain. What’s the one question about this industry that you’ve always wanted to ask Joe?
Joe has spent decades working with interconnect and packaging technology, as a chemist and process engineer. He’s the pioneer behind the Occam process for solderless assembly. He often begins his columns with a quote from Lewis Carroll or Don Miguel Ruiz. Joe has also written about the need for technology companies in the Western world to develop products that help improve the lives of the poor in third-world nations.Jo
