Joel is a real thought leader in manufacturing and the first person to write and MTConnect app for the iPhone and Android. Joel also open sourced his work. Joel Neidig is the type of person that gives me great hope for manufacturing because he is a young guy with deep expertise, vision and passion which means he has decades to keep innovating - which will be fun to watch.
