Bush and an authority on geopolitical, economic, and technological trends; and none other than “The Fonz” himself, Henry Winkler, the Emmy-Award winning actor, author, director, and producer.

Over the past 28 years, he has created a packaging powerhouse with Wasatch Container specializing in ad- vanced printing capabilities for e-commerce packaging and retail displays and a Protective Packaging Division specializing in foam fabrication, case solutions, and wood crates. Frisch was chairman of AICC in 2008-09. The Sales Forum John Ballentine, Sales Program Director and Instructor
