December 2019

 

Peter WinstonWelcome to ICS' December Newsletter

As the final weeks of 2019 approach and the ener­gy of the hol­i­days surges with excite­ment, we’re busy pre­paring for the new year and new decade! In 2019, we set ambi­tious goals to foster inno­va­tion and deliver exceptional qual­i­ty for our customers at every turn. For 2020 we aim to build on our success. Look for exciting new initiatives from ICS in the coming months.

In the meanwhile, dig into this December issue, which includes a live QML webinar and parts 7 and 8 in our Creating QML Controls series; a UX design case study focused on industrial controls; a blog on medical device usability and FDA approval; and an article on gesture technology in the healthcare sector, which appeared in Medical Product Outsourcing.

From everyone at ICS, may the new year bring the very best to you and yours.

Peter Winston, CEO, ICS
