CEDIA has announced Larry Pexton will be inducted to the CEDIA Fellows program at CEDIA Expo 2018. The CEDIA Fellows program honors longtime CEDIA members and volunteers who have contributed significantly to the association’s success. Pexton will be recognized at the CEDIA Awards Celebration hosted at Petco Park on Wednesday, September 5, 2018.
“During his tenure as Chairman of the CEDIA Board, Larry oversaw a number of important projects and initiatives that have had a lasting impact for the CEDIA community, including the CEDIA rebrand in 2015, the expansion of CEDIA into new global markets, and initiating the research process for the new global headquarters,” said says Humphries, CEDIA Chairman.
Pexton is well-known as the founder and only CEO of Triad Speakers, Inc. based out of Portland, OR.
