Extensively experienced entrepreneur who led the development of two North American based contract electronics manufacturers (EPIC from 1999 to 2009 and Firstronic from 2011 to 2024). In both cases, the electronic manufacturing businesses started with less than 50 employees and reached several thousand employees with revenue growth from < $10M to over $200M and expanded from one domestic plant to multiple international plants. John Sammut was awarded the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year for Southeast Michigan twice (2004 and 2022), based upon the overall performance of these companies and their impact on their respective communities. John Sammut is an alumnus of LTU (BSEE / BSBA in 1988) and started his career at Ford Motor Company where he worked in electronic systems engineering. Based upon his interest in leading multinational companies, he completed his MBA at INSEAD in France (The European Institute of International Business) in 1993. John is passionate about teaching entrepreneurship at his alma mater and plans to support LTU in the development of an Entrepreneurial Management program and Center.
