More About Carol Latham

Where else but America could a woman with a Bachelor of Arts degree in chemistry find success in starting a technology business? Carol Latham invented superior thermally conductive materials for cooling electronic chips, developed a unique manufacturing process for producing them, and marketed them through manufacturer’s representatives. Carol, the product of a discriminating oil company culture mostly devoid of women, founded her company, Thermagon Inc., intending to create an opposite nurturing culture of caring and training. Her hope was that each employee would enhance their skills and plight in life as a result of their work experience at her company. This, along with her outstanding products was a formula for success.
