CEDIA and Utz Baldwin have agreed on Mr. Baldwin's departure from CEDIA as Chief Executive Officer. CEDIA's Board of Directors will continue to provide strategic leadership for the organization as it continues to build strength as the dominant global association in residential technologies.
Randy Stearns, CEDIA’s Chairman, said, “CEDIA would like to thank Utz for his contributions as CEO, president, and volunteer in addition to his strategic vision of the Association’s future. CEDIA wishes Utz the greatest success in his future endeavors.”
Don Gilpin will assume a more active role as CEDIA's Chief Operating Officer under the direction of the Board of Directors. Randy Stearns continued, “As we continue to grow we will be calling on more members to volunteer and help us be the best trade association in the world.”
Being the first of anything has to be tough.
There are no existing benchmarks to work toward or precedent to draw from.
I know I would not have wanted to have been the first, that's for sure.
Best of luck to you, Utz.
Please feel free to drop us a line to tell us where you are headed.
