Valtronic will Host the OAI Member Roundtable May 21^st

Jim Ohneck will present:

"How Sensors and Electronic Miniaturization are Changing the World"

Join us at Valtronic Technologies Miniaturization Plant and see how some of today's most advanced technologies are used to: allow the deaf to hear, find oil under the oceans and monitor tire pressure on a Boeing 747.

Several years ago Valtronic launched an Academic Relations program which has given us the opportunity to partner on a variety with Academic Institutions.  Now in its sixth year, we thought we would share some of the successes of the program.

We have had the opportunity to partner with OSU on an epilepsy probe whose goal is to determine the source and spread of an epileptic seizure.  We are working with MIT and Cornell on a Retinal Implant project.  We partnered with the University of Toledo on a research project which resulted in  a new high powered laser which received FDA clearance last year for pain management.

We have worked on several R&D projects with Case Western Reserve University.  Additionally Valtronic's staff have lectured at schools all over the country from UC Riverside to Hartford as well as done community outreach with local High Schools.

Valtronic Technologies is proud of the work we have done with academic institutions to date and look forward to the opportunities the future holds.  If you have questions or would like to learn more please contact Patty Klavora.  pklavora@valtronictechnologies.com/888-291-9422

On April 2nd Valtronic employees gathered at the Quicken Loans Arena in downtown Cleveland to watch their home basketball team the Cleveland Cavaliers and Lebron James. Employees were treated to a buffet dinner and refreshments in a fun and victorious evening against the Atlanta Hawks.
