Date: 1957

In 1938, before Bill and Dave had even formalized their partnership, Bill took a prototype of their first product to a conference of the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE, later the IEEE). In 1957, Hewlett-Packard — by that point a renowned technology company with nearly $15 million in assets — was still eagerly showing off its wares at IRE functions.
