Almo ProAV’s E4 Experience Will Show Only New Products & Offer Autograph and Photo Session with Quarterback Jim McMahon

Next week in Chicago, Almo Professional A/V will open the doors to its first 2019 E4 Experience, a rebranded, expanded version of the award-winning E4 AV Tour, which is set to incorporate an exhibit hall filled with new commercial AV products. E4 Experience Chicago is also featuring a special autograph and photo opportunity with former Chicago Bears quarterback and two-time Super Bowl champion Jim McMahon.

“Not only does the E4 Experience bring the best professional instructors in the industry, but we also have a flurry of new AV technology on the exhibit floor,” said Melody Craigmyle, vice president of marketing and communications for Almo Corporation. “Our manufacturing partners specifically use the E4s to unveil products because the venue is ideal for demonstrations and quality face time. With DSE, NAB and InfoComm coming, manufacturers know that previewing some of their products at E4 will provide valuable exposure, especially locally to those who aren’t able to attend the national shows.”

Craigmyle added that attendees will want to build time into their day to get an autograph and photo with former Chicago Bears quarterback, Jim McMahon, who will be at E4 Experience Chicago from 12:30-2:30pm. “It’s not often that we have the opportunity to shake hands with an NFL industry great like Jim McMahon who is so well-known in Chicago. Attendees will want to bring their Bears jerseys, footballs and other gear so he can personally autograph them.”

New additions to the E4 Experience exhibit hall include:

  • Vivitek USA: A leading manufacturer of visual display and presentation products, including digital projectors, collaboration and digital signage devices.
  • D-Link Systems: Provider of end-to-end networking solutions, including switching, wireless, network, IP surveillance, storage and management systems.
  • VDO360: Provider of best-in-class videoconferencing cameras and microphones.

We look forward to showcasing our line to their team and partners at the E4 Experiences.”

“I am excited about the announcement of our partnership with Almo, one of the true leaders in the ProAV space,” said Matt Vaillancourt, director of U.S. Distribution, D-Link Systems. “D-Link has long been looking for a partner to help bring our innovation and solutions in networking to the rapidly evolving ProAV market. We cannot wait to get hands-on, educating and helping to clear road blocks for Almo’s ProAV integrators.”
