 Security Industry Association appoints Jennifer Martin to the post of NPS Chairman
Martin has over 30 years of experience in the security industry
The Security Industry Association New Product Showcase (NPS) Planning Committee has selected Jennifer Martin of Pixim to be its new chairman.

Martin, the manager of worldwide channel programs for Pixim, is a committee member who had served as a judge for the NPS for five years. She brings more than 30 years of experience in the security industry to the position.

"I'm very excited to have been chosen," Martin said. "The NPS is a great programme, and I look forward to helping it continue to grow."

The NPS, now in its fourth decade, is the premier awards-based marketing programme in the electronic physical security industry. Entrants will compete in 18 product and service categories in the NPS at ISC West in Las Vegas on March 23-24, and judges will also select winners of the Judges' Choice Award and the prestigious Best New Product Award. A non-competitive version of the NPS is also held in conjunction with ISC East in New York City in the fall.

Martin takes over from long-time NPS Chairman Sandra Jones, principal consultant for Sandra Jones and Company.
