New Members of IPC Government Relations Steering Committee
March 1, 2010 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
BANNOCKBURN, IL — IPC’s Government Relations (GR) Steering Committee added two members with the recent election of Mark Osborn, president, Colonial Circuits Inc.; and Irene Sterian, manager of advanced process development, Celestica. With upcoming GR committee meetings at IPC APEX EXPO in April and IPC Capitol Hill Day in June, the new members will help address the critical issues currently under consideration by the group.
The mission of the GR Steering Committee is to further IPC members' interests by promoting policies to foster economic growth and job creation and to enhance the international competitiveness of the electronic interconnect industry. In carrying out its charge, the committee addresses a broad range of issues that affect IPC member companies, such as tax policy, trade policy and trade promotion (including support for a fair, open and rules-based international trading system), technology policy (support for electronic interconnect research and development) as well as other issues as identified by members’ needs.
“Irene expands the group’s perspective into Canada and Mark has actually run for office and lives near enough to Washington, D.C. to allow him to help pursue our goals in person. There’s no doubt that with the addition of these two individuals, we have gained significant resources that will help IPC to meet the needs of our industry,” stated GR Steering Committee Chairman Dan Feinberg.
Sterian and Osborn join current members Dan Feinberg, president, Fein-Line Associates; Michael Brown, chairman of the board of directors, Logic Corporation; Jack Calderon, managing partner, Lincoln International; Nilesh Naik, CEO, OneSource Group; Joe O’Neil, president and CEO, Hunter Technology Corp.; and Mikel Williams, president and CEO, DDi Corp.
