Chevrette added, “CEoutlook has a proud history and the next chapter is about building on it. This industry has been pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in audio and mobile electronics for decades and I am committed to shining a bigger spotlight on that innovation and the daily challenges and successes of the industry as well as the news of the day.”
