PA3 INVITES YOU TO “SECOND TUESDAYS”

A PRINCETON PROPELLER EVENT 

AT QUADRANGLE CLUB

FOR ENTREPRENEURS,

NAVIGATORS & THE CURIOUS

Please Join Us for Cocktails & Hors d’oeuvres

33 PROSPECT AVENUE – PRINCETON, NJ

6 P, TUESDAY, May 14th, 2019

Speaker:  Andrew Ippoliti

Technical Lead, BotFactory

“Re-Shaping the Electronic Board Manufacturing Industry: 

Making It Better, Faster, Smarter”

While electronics surround us, and innovations occur daily, the actual process of manufacturing electronic devices has changed little in recent decades.  So, now may be the time to ask:  has the process plateaued?  Might electronics be made with more speed, reliability and ease?  And --- is it really necessary to rely on so-called experts to manufacture them?  The answers may surprise you!  BotFactory, an NYC startup, develops desktop machines which not only democratize the creation of electronic boards, but do so with a technology that enables board fabrication by non-experts.   Their lead developer, Andrew Ippoliti, will describe just how BotFactory does it.  Following a broad historical review of electronic circuit board manufacturing, Andrew’s talk will take us into the rapidly evolving realm of future electronic board fabrication.

NEXT PRINCETON PROPELLER:  Tuesday, June 11^th (6 P)

March 23, 2019 - The book club will meet on Thursday, April 25, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. in East Pyne 111. Our selection is:

Americanah, by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Hodder Fellow at Princeton, 2005-06). 

Here's how it starts: "Princeton, in the summer, smelled of nothing, and although Ifemelu liked the tranquil greenness of the many trees, the clean streets and stately homes, the delicately overpriced shops, and the quiet, abiding air of earned grace, it was this, the lack of a smell, that most appealed to her, perhaps because the other American cities she knew well had all smelled distinctly."
