AES Society Chapter Meeting
The Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society Chapter is looking for ideas, topics, tours, and speakers to focus a series of educational and networking opportunities. The chapter has not had a meeting for several years so I am looking to gauge interest, preferred meeting times, and desired meeting places. AESS offers a series of distinguished speakers (https://www.ieee-aess.org/default.php) that can be scheduled for chapter meetings. Please indicate if you have interest in certain topics or have heard one or more speakers present their subject at past meetings. Please email me at and I will get back to interested members with an organization meeting date. For planning purposes, I'm looking at the week of October 22nd. For additional information on the IEEE AESS Orlando Chapter, please contact me at or
you may reach me at 407.909.0956.
