<p>Members of <strong>IEEE Eastern North Carolina Section Robotics & Automation(RA24) Chapter,</strong></p>
<p>I am extremely happy and proud to choose and invite <strong>our future IEEE ENCS Robotics & Automation(RA24) 2020 Chapter Chair - Dr. Fred Livingston. </strong> <strong>Fred is a wonderful person and robotics researcher</strong> who will help in forging the next level of robotics in daily lives of our local technical community. We will be making some refinements in our usually way of operations - not overloading the new chair with monthly events, but we will implement creative schedule and programs for the welfare of local technology community around. I will be still around giving a hand in technical projects related to STEM & community welfare.</p>
<p>Through our IEEE ENCS RA24, in addition to active monthly technical sessions and robotics project activities, our primary objectives have been to make our local technology community stronger -</p>
<ul>
<li>By uniting the primary local universities, academic and research institutions</li>
<li>Always encouraging and fostering technology startups, in addition to corporations</li>
<li>Actively support STEM motivation & use of open-source based projects and non-profits</li>
<li>Support and use of well organized makerspace for students, hobbyists, professionals and seniors of all ages - to get together and work on interested, creative hobby technology projects.</li>
</ul>
<p>Our mission had been to make our local Technology community grow stronger filled with abundance of technical resources, upto and beyond the level of global community to resolve the outsourcing based local community issues. We had been representing <strong>"every common aspirational engineer in the local technology community"</strong> and <strong>"ensuring engineers to get enough resources through IEEE so that they can achieve their fullest engineering potentials in their life"</strong>. We are slowly getting there, IEEE has already started creating positive set of resources for every common engineer in the world.</p>
<p>In IEEE, actually we are a part of <strong>SouthEastern USA </strong>- which involves several neighborhood states around NC<strong>. During 2020, </strong>we are hosting our<strong> IEEE SoutheastCon 2020 annual conference at Raleigh and thus actually we are the host for multiple other states during the week of Pi Day(March 14, 2020). In fact, this conference happens around once in 4 years or more at Raleigh, NC. So this is an opportunity to bridge the academic and industry gap at Raleigh, thus making Raleigh a very strong local technical community. I would request all our local industries and corporations to support and be a part of IEEE SoutheastCon 2020 event.</strong></p>
<p>I want to remind and reawaken all of your infinite passion in technology - get engaged in making the local technical community better through IEEE. Give your heart and be fearless extraordinary contributors to the technology. Let you impact, infect your positive thoughts and actions everywhere including work, university, family and the world of technology through IEEE. Let you make the world a better secured, safe and peaceful place of living through technology and actions.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Mahesh Balasubramaniam</p>
