“It is a great honor to be considered alongside some of the giants in our industry” said Steve Halliday, president of High Tech Aid. “The AIDC industry is comparable with the PC industry. 30 years ago the “average person” wasn’t affected by personal computers and now they are an integral part of our lives. Automatic Identification also enhances our lives on a daily basis. The “average person” touches it when visiting the grocery store or mall, a hospital, or even when managing a home and finances. This vibrant industry continues to expand and revolutionize society and I look forward to playing a part in its future development.”
