Award Winning Physicist, #1 Best Selling Author, Featured Speaker, CEO of Del Monte & Associates, Inc., and High Profile Media Personality

 

For over thirty years, Louis Del Monte was a leader in the development of microelectronics and sensors for IBM and Honeywell. As a Honeywell Executive Director, Del Monte had P&L responsibility for $100 million annual bookings/sales, and directed hundreds of professionals to achieve corporate goals.

His innovations and pioneering work on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have profoundly affected integrated sensor technology. Samsung and Honeywell currently use a number of Del Monte’s patents, fundamental to the fabrication of specific integrated circuits and sensors.

Subsequent to those positions, he formed a high-tech Internet marketing agency (Del Monte Agency) and was an early pioneer in the field of Internet marketing and social media. He is currently CEO of Del Monte & Associates, Inc., Del Monte Agency’s parent company.

More recently Del Monte published three bestselling books: Unraveling the Universe’s Mysteries (2012)How to Time Travel (2013) and The Artificial Intelligence Revolution, which became Amazon’s #1 bestseller on artificial intelligence (2014).

How to Time Travel and The Artificial Intelligence Revolution, have received critical acclaim from Kirkus Reviews: 

“Time travel-its possibilities, potential and primary obstacles-gets a levelheaded review from a physicist in this lucid, optimistic book.” (2013)

“Blending hard science and sci-fi, physicist Del Monte (How to Time Travel, 2013, etc.) warns of the implications of strong artificial intelligence machines… The book’s well-structured arguments, glossary and lucid prose make it perfectly suited to laymen.” (2014)

Recent media coverage attests to the success of his books.
