Sims Recycling Solutions Leads a Session at the IAITAM 2010 Conference and Exhibition
Nashville, TN, October 20, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Sims Recycling Solutions, the world’s largest electronics recycler will be leading a session on “Effects of State Legislation on Total Cost of Ownership” at the IAITAM 2010 Annual Conference and Exhibition in Nashville, TN. This session will take place on Thursday, October 21, 2010 at 4:45pm on Track 1.
Reggie Chesson, VP Commercial, will be speaking about recent and evolving state legislation regarding the disposal of end of life electronics, and how it may serve to affect the overall cost of ownership of IT assets. Most legislation requires OEMs to provide recycling solutions at no cost for consumers through annual recycling targets. Fulfilling these recycling requirements can be accomplished in multiple manners. While most legislation addresses the cost of recycling to those enterprises, there may be unintended pricing effects to environmentally focused businesses.
The International Association of Information Technology Asset Managers (IAITAM) 2010 Annual Conference and Exhibition is the IT Asset Manager (ITAM) industry’s only event dedicated solely to the advancement of IT Asset Management and establishment of global best practices with sessions covering ITAM best practices, case studies, standards, licensing, ITAD as well as an experienced level track.
