With a continued focus on “Making Extraordinary Happen,” Exertis Almo (Booth #1315) is ready to engage with new leadership, contributions to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) in AV, thought leadership on the speaker circuit, and a host of all-in-one product and service options for attendees to explore at AVIXA’s InfoComm 2023, taking place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando June 14-16, 2023.

InfoComm 2023 marks the official retirement of AV distribution trailblazer Sam Taylor as EVP/COO for Exertis Almo, and the completion of a six-month leadership transition to Dan Smith, former LG executive.

According to Smith, EVP/COO for Exertis Almo, “Sam has done an outstanding job of bringing the critical importance of distribution in AV to the forefront.” He added, “Moving forward, the AV industry can expect a continuation of true ‘market enablement’ from Exertis Almo. We are always refining our expertise and offerings based on market direction and integrator needs. This includes a broad selection of products to build complete AV project solutions, continuous education opportunities, and highly trained sales, service and business development professionals to provide support on everything from engineering and design to programming and installation.”

Smith noted, “Since being acquired by Exertis and rebranding last year, we have become a larger, stronger business with global reach and the ability to serve integrators at a far greater capacity. At the same time, we have stayed agile and flexible enough to adapt to market conditions and continue the personal approach that our partners and customers expect from Exertis Almo.”

Donation to AVIXA Mosaic Scholarship

In support of further inclusivity and the position that “AV is for everyone,” Exertis Almo is making a $5,000  donation – double its donation from 2022 — to the AVIXA Mosaic Scholarship. Created by AVIXA’s Diversity Council, the Mosaic Scholarship recognizes individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, races, gender identities, sexual orientation, religious affiliations, veterans status, disabilities and national origins, whose imagination and thinking will influence the future of the global AV industry. It is a one-time award towards tuition for an applicant studying a subject related to AV anywhere in the world.
