rAVe AV.BUYERS CLUB Edition

Hi, everybody! The rAVe team has officially made it back from InfoComm and we are happy to announce that you can go and check out our microsite at rAVePUBS.com/InfoComm. From photos to product videos to news stories, blogs and interviews, we’ve got you covered. We’re still uploading product videos as we speak (we shot over 1,600 — it takes us a bit of time to watch and title them all) but we already have over half of them posted.

This newsletter reflects all that we covered at InfoComm. We so enjoyed the events at the Sphere, walking the show floor and talking about tech with one another.

At the end of the day, we wouldn’t do any of this without you. So, thanks for reading and watching. It means the world to us.

Steph Beckett
Managing Editor, rAVe [PUBS]
