Photography Slideshow by Columnist Mehul Davé
April 29, 2020 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: 1 minute
At I-Connect007, we like to work hard, play hard, and highlight our contributors. Mehul J. Davé is a great example of someone who is passionate about the industry as well as his other interests outside of work—especially photography. In the following slideshow, we feature some of his work.
As a columnist, Mehul writes “The Big Picture” and is also CEO and chairman of Entelechy Global Inc. and chairman of Linkage Technologies Inc. He has traveled around the world in many seasons, with visits to Europe, Kenya, India, Costa Rica, Canada, and many places throughout the U.S. The stories behind each of his photos are incredible, from capturing an individual snowflake on a woolen scarf at his farm to waiting two hours to capture an image of a hummingbird feeding her babies in the nest.
To combat the overload of coronavirus posts and news on social media, Mehul recently began sharing favorite photos on his Facebook page daily; he wrote, “…hopefully, my photos give you all something else to think about.” This is just a sampling of Mehul’s wide range of photographs, including landscapes, cities/architecture, people, animals, food, events, and much more.

IPC Standards: The Heart of the Electronics Industry
02/16/2026 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineFrom its very inception, standards development has been at the core of the Global Electronics Association’s work, and APEX EXPO continues to serve as a major venue for standards development and approval. For example, standards committees from around the globe are expected to conduct more than 100 task group meetings during the event. We visited with the Association’s standards development team to learn more about their process, its impact on the industry, and how you can get your voice heard.

EMS Leadership Summit: A Smarter Way to Gather EMS Leaders
02/11/2026 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineMark Wolfe is a career EMS and electronics expert, whose leadership has helped expand and improve the EMS Leadership Summit at APEX EXPO. Last year’s event received a huge approval rating from attendees: a whopping 96% said they’d be back. Not content to rest on those laurels, Mark and his team have put together a program that preserves the Summit’s strengths while finding ways to improve. In this interview, Mark makes a strong argument why EMS leadership at all levels should take a day to examine the wider picture of our industry.
