Join CONNECT and a leading panel of experts from San Diego information technology, life sciences and green energy companies, to learn more about their experiences and insights as to why they are coming back. Participating on the panel will be Patrick Giblin with 451 Degrees, Susan Rillie with Solatube International, Inc. and Kian Saneii with Independa, Inc. Alex Kunczynski from D&K Engineering will be the moderator. Also joining the panel will be Steve Buchwald from California Manufacturing Technology Consulting (CMTC).
