Disruptive Technologies Expert David Pogue to Keynote IPC APEX EXPO 2022
October 6, 2021 | IPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Each year, IPC APEX EXPO features industry’s most dynamic, innovative minds to deliver keynote presentations that are both educational and entertaining. IPC APEX EXPO 2022 will feature New York Times Columnist, Emmy-Winning CBS Sunday Morning Contributor & NOVA Host David Pogue. During his keynote on January 25, Pogue will present, “Disruptive Tech: How it Will Affect Your Business and What’s Coming by 2026.”
Drones and robotics, AI, self-driving cars, employee-less stores, flying taxis, wearable medical sensors, software, and components are accelerating the arrival of new consumer technologies—and with them, changes to society and culture. With 30 years of experience reporting technology trends—and the entertaining style that has earned him six Emmys for his “CBS Sunday Morning” stories— Pogue will take keynote attendees on a wild ride through the cutting-edge science and technology that is powering a next wave of technological innovation. His funny, fast-paced snapshot will bring everyone up to date – with a heads-up on how to succeed in a world we’ve never seen before.
“With broad appeal to general, business, healthcare, and tech audiences alike, David will bring his expansive knowledge, engaging wit, and perhaps a song or two to the APEX EXPO keynote stage,” said Alicia Balonek, IPC senior director of trade shows and events. “The audiences will leave as informed as they are entertained, with an enlightened perspective of the state of technology today — and how it’s shaping everyone’s tomorrow.”
Pogue’s keynote is free to all IPC APEX EXPO participants. In addition to Pogue’s keynote, John Mitchell, IPC president and CEO will deliver a keynote on Wednesday, January 26. Meetings and courses will run January 22-27; the technical conference and exhibition will run January 25-27, 2022.

IPC Hall of Fame Spotlight Series: Highlighting Patty Goldman
11/22/2024 | Dan Feinberg, I-Connect007In my first article of this special series, I wrote a synopsis of the IPC Raymond E. Pritchard Hall of Fame (HOF) Award, along with a commentary on its first few members, particularly Pritchard. Over the years, IPC members who have contributed significantly to IPC and our industry have been awarded this high honor and recognition. Though many early HOF members have passed away and are unknown to today’s IPC membership, their contributions still resonate. Over the coming months, I look forward to researching and reporting on IPC Hall of Fame members and their contributions. This month, I highlight Patty Goldman.

Enjoy the Journey: PCB Design Instructor Kris Moyer on His Sustainable Lifestyle
11/19/2024 | Michelle Te, IPC CommunityWhen I contacted IPC design instructor Kris Moyer to discuss his sustainable lifestyle, he responded to my text with a call. "I'm calling you from about 8,000 feet, sitting at the foot of Mammoth Lakes," he told me. “My friends and I are about to get in the pool for the afternoon." Kris can do this because he actually lives full-time in his travel-trailer at this campground. He's now a permanent camper, taking him anywhere the winds blow—and where there's strong internet service—so he can teach his PCB design classes, offer expert interviews, and live off the land.
