With the global chip industry generating a record $87 billion in revenue during the third quarter, it was easy to see why speakers were upbeat and joking at the annual Semiconductor Industry Association awards dinner Thursday night in downtown San Jose, Calif. Following keynote speaker Austan Goolsbee’s remarks, Todd Mosher, CEO of marketing and communications firm Zone 5, tweeted that Goolsbee “kills the crowd at the SIA America Annual Dinner with hilarious economic analysis and predictions.” The tongue-in-cheek remarks may not come as a surprise considering that Goolsbee, an economics professor at the University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business, was voted “D.C.’s Funniest Celebrity” in a contest in 2009 and was named by the Financial Times as one of the six “Gurus of the Future.” Scalper1 News
