You Are Invited To The 2010 PSMA Planning Meeting
T he 2010 Planning Meeting will take place on Saturday September 19 in the Sundance 2 Room at the Omni Hotel in Fort Worth, TX. The meeting will start at 12 Noon. All members are invited to attend and to offer their inputs and suggestions for the projects and activities the association should focus on in the coming year.


The Board of Directors relies on the inputs generated at the annual planning meetings to identify, consider and select programs for the following year that will bring benefits to the PSMA membership. For example, initiatives generated at previous planning meetings have resulted in the Power Technology Roadmap Reports, the Power Supply in Package and Power Supply on Chip project and the Energy Efficiency Database project.

The meeting will begin with a brief review of the year to date accomplishments and summary of ongoing activities by Dusty Becker, Chairman of the PSMA. He will also review the results of a SWOT analysis conducted by the Marketing Committee and the Executive Committee.

The introductory review will be followed by an open forum and discussion of possible special projects, initiatives and priorities for the coming months. Any PSMA member is encouraged to provide inputs even if they cannot attend the meeting. Please email your suggestions to power@psma.com so that they can be considered and included in the discussions. In the coming months, the Marketing Committee will summarize the results of the meeting and prepare a survey of the membership to solicit their priorities on which projects and initiatives should be the focus in the next year.

Attending members and guests are invited to remain after the Planning Meeting to participate in the September meeting of the Board of Directors, which will take place immediately following. After the board meeting, interested individuals are invited to tour the exhibit area space in the Fort Worth Convention center and the meeting room facilities planned for APEC 2011

If you do plan to attend these meetings, please call or e-mail the Association Office at power@psma.com.  

The APEC 2011 Technical Program Committee will meet the following day, Sunday September 20, to select the technical papers and to organize the technical sessions, professional education seminars, rap sessions and special presentations for APEC 2011 in March. PSMA is a co-sponsor of APEC and all members are invited to participate in this important activity.

We look forward to seeing many of you at these important meetings.
