rAVe ED [Education] — Volume 13, Issue 10

May 21, 2020 | Volume: 13 | Issue: 10

Hello everyone I am back with another list for our last ed issue of May. Here is what you can expect from reading the below newsletter:

All the knowledge in the world: Just kidding. But we have a solid amount of product news. Radial Engineering, Tripleplay, InReality, Planar, Extron, ZeeVee and more.
Events: Almo’s E4v! It’s still happening! You can still roll up tomorrow and join! Get all the info below.
Thoughts/words: from Futuresource’s Adam Cox and Christopher Gillespie.

Yes, we are chugging along here in education — and for good reason! I see most universities have released plans for fall classes. I know a lot of you IT/AV managers are getting down to business. Good luck.

And with that, I leave you. But first! Here’s a lesson on reading the room.

Fare thee well.

+ ITIL, ITSM and the Challenge Confronting the AV World [Christopher Gillespie]

Many of us in the AV industry are somewhat familiar with ITIL and its various relatives. However, it’s been my experience that not many of us understand what it’s about or why it exists. I was in that same boat for a long time, but as I started to learn more about these systems, I realized they are the missing link to our world. The entire purpose of this article is to help others see how this can help us, and maybe even kick-start adoption of (what I see as) the next stage of evolution in our industry.
