Volume 11, Issue 9 – May 2, 2025

May 2, 2025 | Volume: 11 | Issue 9

Hello everyone! Welcome to your latest AV Buyers Club newsletter. I’m here to tell you a little about what’s in this latest issue! Scott Tiner writes a little bit about why he thinks AV and building management should remain separate industries (in most cases). And Robert Heron writes about projectors in the education space.

As for news, we have a few new products from LG, AVI Systems’ big rebrand as FORTÉ, Korbyt’s partnership with Amazon for its signage stick and more.

Happy reading and have a good weekend!
