28/07/2017
During Mr Seabury’s tenure, the OIA has unveiled a new trade show schedule, established its new strategic vision, and strengthened its partnerships with the Grassroots Outdoor Alliance and Outdoor Retailer.
He is replaced by Travis Campbell, president of VF-owned brand Smartwool and first vice chair of OIA, who said he followed in “very big footsteps”.
Mr Campbell said his goals included building events to energise and unite the outdoor industry; organising brands to engage on important issues; and ensuring that OIA delivers as much value as possible to its members and to the outdoor community.
“The industry is at a really pivotal point in its evolution,” he explained. “The work of OIA has never been more important.”
