Recommend:
Phil Smith has joined MtronPTI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The LGL
Group, Inc., and a world leader in custom frequency control and filter
solutions, to serve as Director of Marketing. Reporting to Greg
Anderson, President and CEO, Mr. Smith will be responsible for
developing strategies that drive future business opportunities and to
define emerging market solutions.
"We are extremely pleased and fortunate to have Phil join our team,"
says Mr. Anderson. "There are many growth opportunities in play and on
the horizon, and Phil will be a strategic player in both new market
development and in expanding our organic sales."
Mr. Smith, a semiconductor industry veteran, held various design, sales
and marketing positions at Teradyne, Inc., a leading supplier of
automatic test equipment, at their Boston, Massachusetts, location.
Working within a test system maker and extensively in the field with
their semiconductor clients, Smith gained a unique understanding of both
the promise of integration and the tradeoffs in real-time system design.
Mr. Smith, principal in TimeShift Productions, a marketing consultancy,
first began working with MtronPTI management in 2011 to continuously
improve the strategy and product planning process. Mr. Smith holds a
bachelor of science degree in Electrical Engineering from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Mr. Smith said, "It is a privilege to be part of the frequency control
industry with a superb company such as MtronPTI. With ever-increasing
bandwidth needs driven by 4G phones, cloud video services and defense
communications, the future is bright for companies who can ensure
quality of service while reducing total system cost. I believe
MtronPTI's long experience, semi-custom approach, outstanding customer
service, and low-cost manufacturing offer unique tools to help our
clients connect with confidence."
