about

the importance of carving out a professional network and community.

As the founder of The Urban Electric Co., Dave Dawson has sought out collaborations, guidance and opportunities for discussion and solutions-sharing from CEO’s and executives in his own and other industries throughout his career. Along the way, however, he realized the need for an organization more tailored to the unique nature of his business, something that was missing from the existing leadership and peer enterprise landscape. As a result, he began taking steps in 2018 to launch and formalize a more focused peer-to-peer organization that would speak specifically to high-end product design and craft manufacturing.
