Charles Sporck, an early champion of globalization who moved some of Fairchild's chip assembly operations from the US to Hong Kong in the 1960s, died at 96
James R. Hagerty / Wall Street Journal : X: @donal888 X: Don Clark / @donal888 : I'm sorry to belatedly learn that chip pioneer Charlie Sporck has died, though I think shifting assembly jobs to Asia was just a small part of his legacy. Wafer fabrication plants mostly stayed in the states, and National was good at running them https://www.wsj.com/...
