AMT Announces Acquisition of Time Compression and Process Cleaning Media Properties
McLean, VA . . . AMT-The
Association For Manufacturing Technology today announced their
intention to acquire all assets of the media properties Time
Compression and Process Cleaning from Gardner Publications. These
acquisitions support AMT’s strategic mission to grow its
membership to include manufacturers of new and developing
technologies such as additive manufacturing. AMT is developing
a complete suite of services for this community, which will include
existing products such as the IMTS show, business intelligence
tools, technical meetings, and conferences and activity in overseas
markets.
Assets to be purchased from Gardner Publications include the
lists, websites and e-mail newsletters of Time Compression and
Process Cleaning magazines.
"Additive manufacturing is one of the most exciting
technologies being developed today and process cleaning is a
complementary technology that fits well with our current
membership. These acquisitions will help AMT bring these
manufacturers into our association, which will provide them with
many benefits and give access to these technologies for our current
members," says AMT President Douglas Woods.
According to Gardner President Richard Kline, “We are
pleased that the work we have done to develop the reach of these
properties will provide continuing value to AMT.”
Details of the agreement were not disclosed. The sale is
expected to be finalized by the end of October.
