CEDIA Executive Director Plans To Step Down By End of 2015
The executive director of CEDIA, Don Gilpin, will step down as leader of the home technology industry association by the end of 2015. Gilpin has been with CEDIA, Indianapolis, since 1998 and became executive director and COO in 2006. Chairman Larry Pexton and the board of directors will search for Gilpin's replacement immediately. Gilpin will assist the board of directors in this search process and he is expected to remain on board for a transitional period after his successor is named.
“After considerable thought and discussions with CEDIA's executive committee, I felt next year would be the right time to leave,” said Gilpin. “When I came to CEDIA, 17 years ago as the director of CEDIA EXPO, I could not have imagined the incredible run I would have and the wonderful people I met over the years.”
