Tim Clegg, Founder and CEO, created Clegg Industries Inc, in 1987 and Americhip, Inc. in 2001
Tim developed his love for entrepreneurship while serving as the VP of Franchise Development for Smith & Associates, the largest independent U.S. distributor of integrated circuits. After designing and marketing various LED technologies, Tim realized that integrating microelectronics into print advertising offered enormous marketing possibilities. Americhip was formed in 2001 with the goal of marrying the best in paper and packaging engineering with microelectronics. With a strong business model, and talented designers and engineers, Americhip has quickly grown into the world’s leading developer and producer of Multisensory technologies, which are integrated into specialty print, packaging, publishing, in-store marketing, gift cards, and interactive books. Tim spends most of his time sharing his multisensory business model vision with leading Fortune 500 brands across key vertical industries: automotive; pharmaceutical; retail; entertainment; packaged goods; and with leading advertising agencies. Tim also enjoys lecturing about the future of sensory branding at Loyola Marymount University. Tim holds a B.A. in Economics & Management from Albion College, Albion, Michigan.
