IPC is a global organization that develops and promotes the use of standards, certification, education, and industry intelligence for the electronics industry. Additionally, IPC’s strategic vision is to build its leadership position on topics and issues that drive change for the industry—and to be astutely aware of these drivers and how they are interconnected.
With these goals in mind, IPC has created the Thought Leaders Program (TLP), comprised of industry experts who will assist IPC on key industry issues and offer valuable insights to IPC members and key external stakeholders.
I’m thrilled and honored to coordinate the TLP and the work of this distinguished and diverse group of individuals. Our industry is on the cusp of exciting change, and the thought leaders IPC has assembled will help guide the industry to new heights.
This select group of experts is tasked with generating ideas and insights in five areas:
- Education and workforce
- Technology and innovation
- The economy
- Key markets
- Environment, health, and safety
Using these five areas as a guide, IPC will push for changes in our industry, including more government interaction and widespread stakeholder involvement.
