PTDA 50th anniversary Industry Summit

Aug. 1, 2010
The Power Transmission Distributors Association will hold its 2010 Industry Summit October 21 to 23, 2010 at the J.W. Marriott Desert Ridge in Phoenix, Arizona. This marks PTDA's 50th anniversary as a lead association for industrial power transmission and motion control distribution channels.

The Power Transmission Distributors Association will hold its 2010 Industry Summit October 21 to 23, 2010 at the J.W. Marriott Desert Ridge in Phoenix, Arizona. This marks PTDA's 50th anniversary as a lead association for industrial power transmission and motion control distribution channels.

Why go? Face-to-face conversations for building and strengthening relationships is just as important today as it was in 1960 when Warren Pike founded PTDA: A study by Oxford Economics shows that executives value conference and trade show participation at about $4 to $6 per dollar spent — and for every dollar invested in business travel, $3.80 in new profits.
