THIS IS A PROMOTED POST

This week, Exertis Almo, the largest and most specialized value-added North American AV distributor, will deliver the fourth and final installment of its 2022 E4 Experience program. On October 20, the one-day education and business event for resellers, integrators and their end users is featuring the first double showroom, which will be packed with 50+ exhibiting manufacturer and service partners showcasing the latest AV technology and revenue-generating service options. Attendees can also participate in a new panel session on the important subject of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in the workplace.

Vice President of Marketing and Communications for Almo Corporation, Melody Craigmyle talks with MarketScale about E4 Boston, giving back locally, and the DEI panel here.

According to Craigmyle, “We are looking forward to concluding the 2022 E4 Experience with our first double showroom. Thanks to our sponsoring partners, we’ll have more exhibitors and technology on display than we’ve ever had at any E4 Experience.” She added, “This is also the first E4 to feature a panel discussion on DEI – this session focuses on the many layers of diversity that may not have been considered, how to start a conversation on this topic, and designing a workplace for diversity. We look forward to the dialogue this panel will generate as well as the questions from attendees.”
