“I’m honored to be named among the finalists in this year’s Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year program,” said Porter. “This award is a reflection of the incredibly talented team here at LVT and their continued dedication to providing the highest quality video surveillance technology where and when our customers need it most. This enables our customers to make immediate decisions that directly impact the security of their organizations.”
