Holiday Greetings From the I-Connect007 Team
December 23, 2022 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute

The staff at I-Connect007 wish you and your loved ones the happiest holiday season.
No matter how you mark the season, may this time of year fill your hearts with joy and laughter as we start a new year full of hope, excitement, and opportunity.
It’s important to pause here and there and reflect on the many wonderful moments the holidays can bring into our lives. We get to sing some of our favorite songs, watch some true holiday classics, and often gather with loved ones, putting aside our differences and busy lives to just enjoy being together.
We took a little stroll through the internet to find out just what are the top 10 Christmas movies. It’s probably no surprise that “It’s a Wonderful Life” tops most charts. This 1946 classic features a superb storyline, acting, and fake snow as far as the eye can see. Not far behind this Jimmy Stewart classic are the “up-and-comers” like 2003’s “Elf” and 1990’s “Home Alone.” And who can forget the 1983 favorite, “A Christmas Story.” Such fun!
Well, you each have your own favorites, but be sure to take an occasional break from these holiday films to check out what’s happening at I-Connect007 during the holiday break. We post breaking industry news, articles, and columns year-round. Perhaps this is a chance to catch up on some magazine reading—our December issues preview the exciting IPC APEX EXPO 2023—and there’s a lot to talk about.
May you truly enjoy the magic this season has to offer.
The I-Connect007 Team

IPC APEX EXPO 2025 Review: Expecting the Unexpected
03/31/2025 | Tom Kastner, GP VenturesOne of the best things about trade shows is not the scheduled meetings but the chance meetings that come up unexpectedly. Just because you happened to go down one aisle instead of the next, you bump into an old acquaintance that you have not seen for years, or you happen to talk to the guy in line next to you to get a $5 Pepsi, and it turns into a great, new connection.
