The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) is the industry group representing the commercial radio stations and television stations of the United States. Powerful beginners of the early 1920's: Thorne Donnelley, Elliot Jenkins, Dr. Frank Elliott, William Hedges, Powel Crosley, and Eugene McDonald, are considered the founding members of the modern National Association of Broadcasters.
NAB's influential conventions -- Electronic Media Shows -- draw an average of a hundred-thousand guests from all around the world, making it the premier resource for the broadcast industry.
Similar organizations exist in individual U.S. states, including GAB, the Georgia Association of Broadcasters in Georgia. Its counterpart in Canada is CAB, the Canadian Association of Broadcasters.
