Fifty Years Ago & In the Future – A Marconi Member Event
ABOUT THE EVENT
Fifty years ago, there was something in the air! Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn sketched out ARPA’s TCP/IP internetworking protocol, the foundation for the Internet. Marty Cooper made the first cellphone call and Federico Faggin led the development of the “8008,” the first 8-bit microprocessor that sparked the personal computing revolution.
Each of these innovators – all Marconi Fellows – is still working hard to create the future. Learn about the world these luminaries expect over the next fifty years and what they are working on to bring us there.
This panel offers exclusive insights into how some of the world’s most impactful scientists think, work and view the future.
