MARCH 2021 ■ IEEE INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS MAGAZINE 99 I f we look at the world today, we may wonder how technology is important for us. Is there any discipline that could cover and join with current trends? At the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) website [1], one can read the following:The Industrial Electronics Society through its members encompasses a diverse range of technical activities devoted to the application of electronics and electrical sciences for the enhancement of industrial and manufacturing processes. These technical activities address the latest developments in intelligent and computer control systems, robotics, factory communications and automation, flexible manufacturing, data acquisition and signal processing, vision systems, and power electronics. The Society continually updates its program of technical activities to meet the needs of modern industry. The vision of the IES is to advance global prosperity by fostering technological innovation, enabling members' careers and promoting community worldwide. The IES promotes the engineering process of creating, developing, integrating, sharing, and applying knowledge about electro-and information technol-ogies and sciences for the benefit of humanity and the profession. The history of the IES can be viewed at [2]. We should remember its origins. Moreover, it is important to use the experiences of mentors, students, and young professionals to grow and expand research opportunities.
