At the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), "boomerangs" have previously worked for the association, left and now returned. As one of those boomerangs, I wanted to share my story of how I originally came to CTA in 2006 and why I left, only to find myself returning nearly a dozen years later.

For the past week, CTA’s Ed Brzytwa and Vada Garcia have been busy representing America’s innovators at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting in Lima, Peru. Check out Ed’s recap:
Since Thursday last week, Vada G. and I have been on the ground representing the Consumer Technology Association at the APEC - Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meetings in Lima, Peru. APEC is the premier forum for economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region. The leadership of APEC changes hands every year. Last year, the United States hosted APEC, this year it’s Peru’s turn, and next year South Korea’s. That means that host decides on its own theme and priorities for advancing APEC’s long-standing objectives on trade and economic growth. For Peru, their theme is “Empower, Include, Grow”. This simple phrase is powerful and resonant. It reflects both the thesis of Peruvian economist Hernando De Soto’s seminal book the Mystery of Capital and drives Peru’s goal of moving more people and businesses from the informal sector to the formal sector of the economy. All of the workshops and events we have attended this week have honored this theme. We had the privilege of participating in many APEC events this week, including on: ➡️Trade in Remanufactured Consumer Electronics ➡️Technical Standards for Services ➡️Standards for Electric Vehicles and Autonomous Vehicles ➡️Transparency in the Logistic Supply Chain ➡️Supply Chain Connectivity ➡️Low Value Shipments ➡️Women’s Economic Empowerment ➡️Good Regulatory Practices ➡️Digital Trade In each of these events, our message is that technology is a powerful force for inclusion, innovation, and economic growth and that addressing barriers to trade in consumer technology products yields even greater dividends in each of these areas. We are building new relationships across the Asia-Pacific region but especially in Peru and in Latin America. And we are promoting our flagship trade show CES and encouraging more participation by Latin American companies and governments. And for me personally, I have enjoyed seeing all the friends I made in the Asia-Pacific region throughout 14 years of working in APEC. Big shout outs to all the APECers keeping this forum vital, relevant, and dynamic. And a huge shout our to Peru for their APEC leadership and for the class and optimism they are demonstrating as the host. Looking ahead, the APEC Leaders Week meeting in Lima in November will be an excellent showcase of the outcomes achieved by Peru. In December, South Korea will announce its APEC 2025 theme and priorities. Given South Korea’s technology prowess, we urge it to champion how technology - and trade in technology products - can help our economies address the world’s most urgent challenges and drive innovative and inclusive economic growth. #apecperu2024 #trade #consumertech #asiapacific #apec2025 #standards #grp #digitaltrade #supplychains #reman
