Nappi Succeeds Delmontagne

RESTON, VA—With the coming retirement of industry veteran Regis J. Delmontagne leaving large shoes to fill for three industry associations, it was only fitting that his replacement bring extensive association experience to the printing table.

Ralph Nappi will succeed Delmontagne as president of NPES The Association for Suppliers of Printing, Publishing and Converting Technologies, the Graphic Arts Show Co. (GASC) and the Graphic Arts Education and Research Foundation (GAERF), beginning January 1, 2006.

Nappi will join the three organizations as president-elect on October 8. He is currently head of the American Machine Tool Distributors' Association (AMTDA), a position he has held since 1993.

Prior to joining AMTDA, he worked with association management companies in Dayton, OH, and Washington, DC.
