THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn., Digi-Key Electronics, which offers the world’s largest selection of electronic components in stock for immediate shipment, announced that it is sponsoring and attending the EDS Leadership Summit, happening May 10-13, 2022, at the Mirage Resort in Las Vegas.
“We’re thrilled to be back in person to connect with our valued supplier partners and manufacturer representatives, and celebrate being together after a two-year pause due to the global pandemic,” says Dave Doherty, Digi-Key president. “We’ve been a big supporter of EDS for many years because it brings together such an important mix of industry leaders, and there’s no doubt that we have much to celebrate after overcoming unprecedented challenges and many great discussions to be had about shaping the future of our industry.”
Digi-Key’s EDS Business Update Breakfast is also back, scheduled for Thursday, May 12, with Doherty and the leadership team sharing market activity and Digi-Key business updates along with entertainment.
“We are very excited to have the opportunity to meet again in Las Vegas,” says David Loftus, Electronic Components Industry Association president and CEO. “While we have been very lucky to have remote conferencing solutions like Zoom and Teams during the pandemic, they just can’t replace the value of a firm handshake and productive face to face meetings between top executives.”
