Avnet enjoys being located in the Valley and also looks to make its home a better place, said Avnet Vice President for Public Relations and Community Affairs Teri Radosevich.
Avnet, Inc. is one of the largest distributors of electronic components, including connectors and semiconductors; technology solutions, computer products and embedded technology. Avnet connects the world’s leading technology manufacturers with a broad base of more than 100,000 customers by providing cost-effective value-added services and solutions.
Avnet, a business-to-business technology distributor based in the Valley is not a household name, not because it's not received worldwide praise, but because it doesn't have customers in the traditional sense.
We have all seen Avnet's locations around the Valley, but what do you know about the Phoenix-based electronic distributor, one of the largest in the world?
In 2012, 190 students from colleges and universities across America competed in the Avnet Tech Games at the University of Advancing Technology in Tempe, Ariz.
