About the WCMA Distinguished Career Award

Attended by industry leaders, executives, representatives, and guests from the electrical and electronic wire and cable industry, the WCMA Annual Distinguished Career Award Ceremony recognizes individuals in wire and cable who served the industry for a minimum of 25 years and during that time demonstrated outstanding professional acumen along with personal attributes of an exceptional degree.

The Award was originally named for the late Charles D. Scott (1915-1983), founder and president of Northeast Wire Co., Holyoke, Mass., who, as an outstanding businessman, upstanding citizen and kind and helpful mentor and friend who personified the qualities of Career, Contribution, and Character, which are the basis for the Award.
