Roland Corporation to partner with Entertainment Industries and Technology program
Last week, Roland Corporation U.S. President and CEO Tony Price visited campus to talk with university leaders about Roland’s partnership with our Entertainment Industries and Technology (EIT) program. Price is a 1985 communications graduate with more than 30 years of experience in the music industry, including stints as an executive for Fender Musical Instruments, Griffin International, and Guitar Center. He joined Roland in 2017 and was named president and CEO in July 2020
The collaboration between Roland and the EIT program will benefit students in many ways. Students will have access to first-class Roland equipment, Roland-specific certifications and Roland connections. We’re excited about the future of this incredible partnership.
“I feel a sense of gratitude to the university for getting me set on the right path,” Price said. “I love how far this program has come, and this discipline expands into other degree programs throughout the university. That’s super interesting to me.”
More to come about this exciting partnership!
