#116 - Looking for the Sun - a podcast by Get A Grip On Lighting

Margaret Wong got started in the business 36 years ago with a single extension cord. She got that Chinese-made cord listed by UL, a first in the field, and the rest is history.

This episode features discussions of Hong Kong then and now, doing missionary work for capitalism, worker culture in China, and a potential paradigm shift global economics. We also delve into McWong’s future, advocating for Bluetooth mesh, lighting’s ubiquity as the driver for the IoT, and selling people on smart spaces.

In between all that Margaret shares stories about the early days of ballasts, how “WongMc” could not see the light of day, and other barriers to understanding she’s encountered.
