NEOTEC's President & CEO tapped for logistics advisor on international
committee
KENT, OHIO…The President & CEO
of the Northeast Ohio Trade and Economic Consortium (NEOTEC), Ronald

Committee of the Council of Logistics Management (CLM) - an international
organization. DeBarr will serve as advisor to seven CLM Roundtables in
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Kentucky - including the Cleveland
Roundtable where he is the immediate past President.
"I consider this a great honor as well
as an opportunity to expand Northeast Ohio's circle of contacts and
influence," DeBarr said. "Also since NEOTEC is responsible for
Foreign-Trade Zone #181, I am pleased that I will be serving with
logistics professionals from around the world on the Advisory
Committee."
"This appointment should help us in
NEOTEC in formulating our strategies to improve logistics in Northeast
Ohio," DeBarr said. "In logistics we're talking about the
