The UIPRE (Union Internationale de la Presse Radiotechnique et Electronique) has just celebrated its 50th anniversary. The organisation is the only worldwide active association of trade journalists and editors specialising in electronics. Formed on 13th August 1959 when 22 specialist journalists from eight countries met in Frankfurt in the wake of the German Exhibition on Consumer
Technologies, the organisation continues to attract members who want to maintain a high standard of journalism in the electronics industry. Happy Birthday UIPRE!
