market motivated the company to
establish an Asian manufacturing
facility in the Philippines. In 1997,
APC entered the >5-kVA UPS market
with the revolutionary Symmetra
Power Array, offering a unique combination of redundancy, scalability,
and serviceability. APC was named
one of Fortune Magazine's 100 Fastest Growing Companies in 1996.
APC further expanded its reach
in the new millennium with the
launch of PowerStruXure in 2002,
its first unit from network-critical
physical infrastructure architecture, which transformed data center
power management. That same year,
the company was named to the
NASDAQ-100 Index, a list of the 100
largest nonfinancial stocks on the
market. It was followed by another
innovative product in 2003, InfraStruXure, which integrated power,
cooling, racks, management, and

integrated solution and won nearly
20 awards worldwide. Emphasis

was on lower manufacturing cost
and higher efficiency.
In fact, that was APC's mantra for
success-lower manufacturing cost
and higher efficiency. In reality, the
decision to migrate from the initial
solar power business to UPS and the
power protection business not only
saved the company from insolvency
but moved it into a market capable of
creating a US$2 billion company.
Despite a long list of achievements,
Landsman is a down-to-earth man
who never forgets those who motivated and influenced him during his long
career. Some of them include Prof.
Fred Lee (Virginia Tech); Prof. John G.
Kassakian (MIT); Prof. Martin
Schlecht (formerly of MIT and now
CEO of SynQor); the late Prof. R. Middlebrook (Caltech); Prof. Slobodan
