Realizing the crucial new evolution of the industry, with so many technology choices, expanding client demand across a diversity of systems, increased competitive pressure, and a sliver of silver in the housing market clouds, Indianapolis-based Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association (CEDIA) has elected and appointed a strong and solid 2012 volunteer executive committee and board of directors.

The volunteer leadership guides the association’s strategic initiatives. Two directors were voted in by CEDIA members and one director was appointed by the current board. The term runs Jan. 1, 2012 to Dec. 31, 2013.

The Executive Committee:

The new CEDIA Chairman, Federico Bausone of Mexico's Multisistemas BVC Sa de Cv, is among elected and appointed leaders who will help fashion the association's strategic initiatives during a time in which traditional and emerging challenges will determine a strong future for the industry.
