“I’m thrilled that Mark has accepted our invitation to chair the 2020 Conference,” said Debbie Conyers, ECIA VP of Member Engagement. “He is very active in ECIA and will bring a unique perspective to the conference planning. As the electronic components industry – and our Association – continue to grow and evolve to address rapidly changing business conditions, our strength is the fact that we serve the entire channel, the component manufacturers, their distributors and independent sales reps.
