The founder and president of Moore Industries, Leonard W Moore, has been given an Honorary Member distinction by the International Society of Automation (ISA), which the company claims is an extremely high honour for Moore.
Moore received the Honorary Member distinction, “for contributions in the advancement of the arts and sciences of automation over a 40-year career of innovation, product development and business leadership,” according to the ISA.
Moore will be presented with a special plaque and pin to mark this achievement at the ISA Honors and Awards Gala on 3rd October 2009 in Texas, US.
“The list of previous winners is impressive to say the least. I am, of course, extremely honored to be part of this elite group,” said Moore.
Moore has lead many innovative business pursuits during Moore Industries’ 40-plus year history. He holds several patents related to electronic instrument packaging, signal conditioning and instrumentation and monitoring systems, according to Moore Industries.
He also patented and introduced the Cable Concentrator System, which allows dozens of I/O to be transmitted on a single, twisted-wire digital pair in the late 1980s, Moore Industries said.
