Chairman's Message: Welcome!

This year's Symposium Organizing Committee has worked hard to design the 2013 EMC Symposium with the goal of ensuring an enriching experience along with networking opportunities through multiple exhibits, technical programs, companion programs, and social events. We have planned three days of top-rated, peerreviewed technical papers presented by experts in multi-track sessions and two days of practical workshops and tutorials, experiments and demonstrations presented by industry professionals. Also included are collateral industry meetings and a full exhibit hall to learn about the latest offerings in EMC products and services. We have some excellent educational workshops in our agenda such as "Grounding - Concepts and Physics Workshop" and "Advanced Computational Electromagnetics and Multi-Physics Methods." On Wednesday morning in the Exhibits Hall, experts in all areas of EMC and Signal Integrity will be available to answer questions in our "Ask the Experts" panel discussion. In addition, this year we are trying out a new online scheduler that will allow you to build your symposium schedule on various types of portable electronic devices.
