Celebrating International Children’s Day at Incap Slovakia
June 5, 2024 | IncapEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

On Saturday 1 June 2024, Incap Slovakia organized a special factory open day for our employees and their families. The event was held to celebrate International Children’s Day and saw nearly 600 employees and their family members participate.
The day began with a video message from Otto Pukk, President & CEO of Incap Corporation. Children enjoyed various attractions, including a circus-themed performance by a well-known artist and a children’s disco with mascots from a popular animated series. Adults had fun testing their strength and skills in different competitions. There was also a raffle with interesting prizes.
Employees used this opportunity to show their children and relatives where they work and what they do. Popular activities like bouncy castles and face painting were available, just like in previous years. A relaxation zone and tasty refreshments with Slovak culinary traditions were also provided.
The weather was perfect, with no rain, allowing everyone to enjoy the day fully. It was a day filled with joy and gratitude for the time spent together. Incap Slovakia is happy to have hosted this event and looks forward to more opportunities to bring our community together.

SEMICON West: The Path to a $1 Trillion Future
10/14/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007After more than 50 years in San Francisco, SEMICON West moved its 2025 show to Phoenix, which is significant because it highlights the importance of Arizona as a semiconductor and tech hub. Though the show will be back in San Francisco in 2026, the overwhelmingly warm welcome SEMI received from Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs, Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, and ASU President Michael Crowe—who has been responsible for ASU repeatedly achieving the U.S. News and World Reports most innovative university ranking—was remarked upon repeatedly. All indications are that SEMICON West may well be back in Phoenix after that 2026 season.
Elementary, Mr. Watson: High Power: When Physics Becomes Real
10/15/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonHave you ever noticed how high-speed design and signal integrity classes are always packed to standing room only, but just down the hall, the session on power electronics has plenty of empty chairs? It's not just a coincidence; it's a trend I've observed over the years as both an attendee and instructor.
The Right Approach: Electro-Tek—A Williams Family Legacy, Part 1
10/15/2025 | Steve Williams -- Column: The Right ApproachThere is no bronze bust in the lobby or portrait in the conference room of Electro-Tek's founder—my Dad, Charles “Chuck” Williams—so with the facility closing last year after 56 years, I feel it is time to tell the story. Chuck Williams founded Electro-Tek in 1968 in our basement, eventually moving into the second floor of an old 1913 building in downtown Milwaukee that is still standing (the first of three eventual facilities).
