Netra Pillay

What made you want to work in this industry?

I was introduced to a course by a friend who was extremely passionate about the field. I took one course and realized I liked it. My first introduction IMS was through the program project connect and somehow everyone I met at that time through the program radiated the same passion and energy that I was fortunate to absorb.

 

What is your favorite part of your job?

Working on challenging problems, thinking of approaching it with different innovative solutions and exchanging novel ideas and possibilities. Getting to work with brilliant minds and contribute towards cutting edge RF technology that the world has not seen yet.

 

What are you most excited about for IMS2024?

Excited to see the numerous innovations folks in our industry are working on, excited about collaborating with professionals from our industry and I can't wait to see the general direction in which the technology is heading towards.

I am also very excited to witness the program Project Connect and meet PC2024 cohort. It has been a very inspiring, humbling and motivating journey from when I had the opportunity to attend this program as a student participant to being able to contribute to it as an organizer. The program's positive influence drives me to actively promote talent within the industry, creating a symbiotic relationship where I not only contribute but also continually learn in return. It's a dynamic and fulfilling cycle!
