Join us to celebrate successes and wins as we highlight how California IEEE organizations are broadening their professional and educational outreach. 

Kathleen A. Kramer, Cal Tech PhD, currently professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of San Diego, will be our featured speaker at 6PM to highlight success stories, particularly with San Diego outreach activities such as Expand Your Horizons, FIRST LEGO League and the FIRST Technical Challenge.

Kathleen will be followed a panel of Bay Area and Silicon Valley IEEE leaders, and will discuss with them their challenges and achievements in creating diverse groups and sustaining energy, given the many obstacles over the past 3 years.
