Corporate Associates: Special eventsAIP Industrial Outreach - Networking Industrial PhysicistsAIP Industrial Outreach hosts additional local networking forums throughout the year, typically at Member Society meetings, to facilitate interactions among society members and physicists working on or interested in industrial applications. Each event features an invited speaker on a topic of interest to local industry, and a social event with ample time for networking. Participants are employed across academe, government, and industry. Each sector, in its own way, contributes to the use of physics in corporate R&D and technological advancement. Cognizant of the need to expose the future workforce to a wide range of career opportunities, Industrial Outreach staff often invite local members of the Society of Physics Students (SPS) to participate, and, if appropriate, tie the networking forums in with SPS poster sessions. The participants will be physicists and engineers from all levels (undergraduates, graduates, post-docs and professors, as well as entry- to senior-level corporate staff) primarily from the local region who have an interest in the forum topic as well as in industrial applications of physics and related fields. Two forums are planned for fall, 2009:
