THE #1 AV NEWS PUBLICATION. PERIOD.

Announcing the 2023 Winners of rAVe’s Best of InfoComm Awards

Best of IC23 Awards Article Image


As we have for the past 13 years, I am proud to say we sent reporters from rAVe [PUBS] to EVERY SINGLE BOOTH at InfoComm 2023 earlier this month to shoot videos of new (and returning!) products. No other company went to every single booth. We amassed a cache of more than 1,560 videos, and we posted them all on our InfoComm 2023 Microsite, which includes over 2,000 photos from the show floor and 300+ new product news stories and podcasts.

And, every year since we’ve been doing this, we’ve given out awards for the best-of-the-best. The best of everything we saw — and here they are. To help you know why each product won, we’ve embedded the product video we shot on the show floor!

So, if you’re an integrator and see something here that you aren’t selling yet, consider contacting them! Likewise, if you’re an end user reading this, consider adding these to your future rooms — they won for a reason …
