Tri-Ed/Northern Video CEO to Receive SIA’s Lippert Award
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The Security Industry Association (SIA) will bestow the 2011 Lippert Award to Tri-Ed/Northern Video CEO Steve Roth.
A former member of the SIA board of directors, Roth began his career in the alarm industry in 1974 as the general manager of Currier-Smith Corp., a digital communication devices supplier. In 1977, he joined ADEMCO, and later developed ADI, a distribution business for the company. After Honeywell Int’l acquired ADI, Roth became president of the Security Group. After he left the company, Roth led a team of investors in the acquisition of Tri-Ed Distribution from Tyco Int’l in 2005. He also played an instrumental role in the Tri-Ed and Northern Video Systems merger in 2010. Roth currently serves on the board of directors of Tiffen Acquisitions LLC, a manufacturer and distributor of photographic accessories products.
