The Global Electronics Distributors Association Comes On Board The EDS Leadership Summit
One of the electronics components industry's top events gains a third member association sponsor
The Electronic Distributors Summit (EDS) announced that the newly formed Global Electronic Distributors Association (GEDA) will become the third sponsoring association of EDS, joining the Electronics Representative Association International (ERA) and the Electronics Components Industry Association (ECIA). EDS is the organization that produces the annual EDS Leadership Summit. GEDA's addition will expand the Summit's global reach as the premier industry event. "GEDA will have two representatives on the EDS Board, a fact that pleases GEDA board member Mike Morton, COO of TTI, an electronics components distributor. "I am very pleased with the support given to the EDS Board of Directors by both the ECIA and ERA associations.
