| WHAT: | Introducing the Cool Product Expo, a showcase of companies and products at the intersection of manufacturing, design, and "cool." Be among the first to touch radically new products, and meet the industry pioneers who created them. | |||
| How do we define "cool"? | ||||
|
-- Ready -- end-user products, not components. |
||||
|
-- Factor -- coolness is readily apparent, requires no explanation. |
||||
|
-- Edge -- radically new, not just an improvement on an existing product. |
||||
|
-- Function -- the essential combination of design and manufacturing. |
||||
| WHEN: | Wednesday, April 9, 2008, noon-6 p.m. | |||
| WHERE: | McCaw Hall, Arrillaga Alumni Center | |||
