The PCB Industry Loses Pioneer in Ken Armitage

Feb 05, 2003

It is with a heavy heart that we at Lazer-Tech Ltd. must inform the printed circuit board world of the passing of Ken Armitage. Ken was the president and owner of Lazer-Tech, located in Toronto, Canada.

A pioneer in the Canadian PCB industry, Ken founded Lazer-Tech in 1968, and the company has been in continuous operation ever since.

Under Ken's leadership, the company has been directly involved with the PCB industry's evolution into a global industry. He was instrumental in developing the PCB manufacturing industry in India.

Ken Armitage was a terrific owner and even greater friend to all that knew him. He will be forever missed and never forgotten.
