Ron Wilson
Ron Wilson brings the experiences of a varied career — ranging from design engineering to marketing management, technology reporting to publishing and content strategy, and small-scale integration to EUV lithography — to the problem of understanding and interpreting today’s chaotic technology scene. When it is easy for startups to claim the nearly impossible, shifts in political currents can totally alter funding sources and markets, and supply chains have become the question rather than the answer, Wilson’s broad perspective can uncover those cases when the intuitively reasonable turns out to be the not-so-likely.
