FPDA and PTDA members gathered together in San Diego on October 22 - 24 for a co-located Industry Summit, featuring a powerful business program, technical exhibits and expanded networking opportunities.
Noted inventor Dean Kamen opened the program, providing a fascinating overview of his efforts to address the global need for clean water and cheap power, and highlighted the success of the FIRST program, as sponsored by FPDA and PTDA.
Plans are underway for the 2010 FPDA event, to be developed jointly with two other industrial distribution associations. Details will be forthcoming.
