Cool
Product Expo showcases companies and products at the
intersection of design, manufacturing, and "cool." Be among the
first to touch radically new products, and meet the industry
pioneers who created them.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
How do we define "cool"?
|
|
|
|
*Ready-end-user products, not components.
|
|
|
|
*Factor-coolness is readily apparent, requires no explanation.
|
|
|
|
*Edge-radically new, not just an improvement on an existing
product.
|
|
|
|
*Function-the essential combination of design and manufacturing.
