Four companies founded by Waterloo Engineering graduates have made a 2021 list of the fastest-growing technology companies in Canada.

Compiled annually by professional services firm Deloitte, the Technology Fast 50 features ApplyBoard in the number seven slot with revenue growth of 5,089 per cent between 2017 and 2020.

Nagula Sangary, a researcher with the Centre for Intelligent Antenna and Radio Systems (CIARS) and an adjunct associate professor in electrical and computer engineering, died on Monday, November 15.

Sangary was involved in the forming of CIARS and was well known for bringing his broad industry experience to his research and student mentorship.

After completing his undergraduate studies in electrical engineering at Texas A&M University in 1988, he earned his master’s and doctoral degrees at McMaster University. Sangary also earned an MBA at University of Oxford.

For now, Alfred Yu is focused on two distinct lines of research as he works to develop the next generation of ultrasound technology – one involving diagnosis and the other involving therapy.

But when he looks ahead, the University of Waterloo biomedical engineer can see a day when the two converge in a single, powerful tool to guide and deliver medical treatment at the same time.

Three researchers at Waterloo Engineering have been recognized for a video outlining how to develop a graduate course on engineering adaptive software systems.

Ladan Tahvildari, a professor of electrical and computer engineering, PhD student Ryan Liu and research associate Mingyang Xu topped more than 40 other entries to take the 2021 Video of the Year award from IBM Canada Advanced Studies.
