38 DESIGN007 MAGAZINE I DECEMBER 2018 5. IPC APEX EXPO is a multidisciplinary event. This is an opportunity to learn while interacting with others who repre- sent different functionalities within the supply chain. The conference also pro- vides a greater, more well-rounded picture of the industry when compared to other events available. 6. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with equipment and solution pro- viders on the show floor to discuss how current or future technology may impact what they learned in the classroom. 7. Learn how updated IPC standards around reliability, assembly, and other concerns address changes in both traditional areas such as PCBs and emerging technologies like printed electronics. 8. 83% of IPC APEX EXPO attendees say the training and education delivered met or exceeded their learning objectives. Further, part of the fun of attending IPC APEX EXPO is learning from individuals who are influential in the industry. IPC APEX EXPO 2019 will feature JB Straubel, chief technical officer (CTO) and co-founder of electric vehicle maker Tesla Inc. Straubel will present "Accel- erating and Disrupting Innovation: The Tesla Story" on January 29. In his presentation, Straubel will draw on his extensive experience and share the history of Tesla, detailing that innovation was not an add-on to its operations but woven into every element of the business. He will also answer the perennial question, "How can my organization re-engineer itself to create products and ideas that answer 21st- century needs?" From the show floor to the classroom and all points in between, IPC APEX EXPO 2019 is the place to be to learn, network, conduct business, and create new relationships while building on established ones.
