In next in the series of interviews with creators of killer innovations, Phil interviews Art Fong. Art was part of the team that invented microwave during WWII, helped develop FM radio and then joined HP when it was still a small start-up. He went on to create innovations that at one point accounted for staggering 30% of HP’s revenue while also playing a key role in re-igniting education, technology and innovation in China following the revolution.
