340: Live from InfoComm 26 - Day 3
Missing Tim Van Woeart for the final live report from InfoComm, our hosts fight through the noise of the HETMA happening happy hour below to wrap-up InfoComm 2026. The group debated whether traditional booth tours still provide value for experienced AV professionals, with manufacturers emphasizing the importance of demonstrating new technology, gathering customer feedback, and showcasing concepts that can’t be replicated over a video call.<br /><br />The conversation shifted to how end-user feedback directly influences product development, the increasing focus on cybersecurity in AV, and the overall health of the industry. The panel also reflected on memorable networking experiences, the standout Peerless-AV party, and the importance of reconnecting with colleagues across higher education and commercial AV.<br /><br />Although attendance felt lighter than previous years, everyone agreed the conversations were higher quality, making InfoComm 2026 a successful and encouraging event.<br /><br /><b>Topics Discussed:</b><br /><ul><li>Value (or lack thereof) of booth tours for experienced AV professionals</li><li>Demonstrating products that can’t be appreciated remotely</li><li>Manufacturers using InfoComm to gather customer feedback</li><li>How customer suggestions shape future AV product development</li><li>Tailoring booth experiences for technical end users</li><li>Building stronger relationships between manufacturers and higher education</li><li>Growth of cybersecurity awareness within the AV industry</li><li>Overall impressions of InfoComm 2026 attendance and quality</li><li>Networking and reconnecting with industry peers</li><li>Highlights from the Peerless-AV party and networking events</li><li>Canadian attendance and international travel observations</li><li>Final reflections and biggest takeaways from the week</li></ul><b>The AV Life is a Higher Ed AV Media production.
