Trump Talking With World Wide Technology Chairman, Transition Aide Says

World Wide Technology Chairman Dave Steward is among those President-elect Donald Trump is contacting as part of his transition, Trump spokesman Sean Spicer told reporters on a call Friday. The discussion with Steward was one among many planned Friday meetings, also including Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Pa., and involved Trump’s consideration “about people potentially playing a role in his administration,” said Spicer. World Wide Technology is “a global systems integrator with more than $7 billion in annual revenue and over 3,000 employees,” said its website. “We serve the technology needs of large public and private organizations, including many of the world’s best-known brands.” Steward co-founded the company in 1990. “With more than two decades of experience in the technology industry, David spends the majority of his time developing strategic supplier, customer and employee relationships,” the website said. “He plays a key role in WWT’s pursuit of large contract bids within its industry specific operating companies.”
