This was Ingram's first foray outside the United States other than a few Ingram Industries subsidiaries. The company embarked on an active merge, acquisitions and foundation strategy in the European market. In August 1993, Ingram Micro Belgium acquired Zedd, (''Zaventem Electronic Dealer Distribution'') and much of its assets including the right to distribute Hewlett Packard products. The Shared Services Center in Manila, Philippines, began operations in May 2009. In recent years, Ingram Micro built a presence in areas adjacent to its traditional distribution business, including enterprise computing, automatic identification and data capture (AIDC); point-of-sale (POS); managed, professional and warranty maintenance services; mobility; physical security; and consumer electronics. Other recent ventures include entry into cloud computing, or software-, platform- and infrastructure-as-a-service. Former U.S. Congressman Chris Lee once worked at Ingram Micro. In June 2014, Ingram Micro changed their logo and introduced a new tagline: “Ingram Micro helps businesses realize the promise of technology”.〔http://ocbj.com/news/2014/jun/23/new-logo-ingram-micro/〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ingram Micro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
