PCEA Names Stephan Schmidt Recipient of 2024 Membership Award
PEACHTREE CITY, GA – The Printed Circuit Engineering Association (PCEA) today announced Stephan Schmidt as recipient of the third annual PCEA Membership Award.
The award recognizes individuals for standout contributions to their local chapter. The announcement came at the PCEA annual meeting in conjunction with the PCB West conference and exhibition.
Schmidt is the leader for the Portland (OR) chapter, which meets each month and is now embarking on a review of intelligent data transfer processes. He is a global technology executive with over 20 years of experience in the laser and electronics industry, most recently as the North American President of LPKF Laser & Electronics, a leading provider of laser-based solutions.
“Stephan Schmidt has completely revitalized the Portland chapter, and it is now functioning as perhaps the most active group within PCEA,” said Stephen Chavez, chairman, PCEA, in announcing the award.
“Moreover, his energy and thoughtfulness about ensuring local members have a range of presentations – from design to fabrication to assembly – make him an invaluable leader in our organization. It gives me great pleasure to recognize Stephan Schmidt with the 2024 PCEA Membership Award.”
