InfoComm: Ask Now, Hear Your IoT Questions Answered at the InfoComm 2015 Keynote

By Nermina Miller

Something I read earlier this year in a blog post by our Executive Director and CEO Dave Labuskes stuck with me. He talked about moving away from “commoditized technology” delivery and instead “enabling directional shift” for the customer. Indeed, today’s solution design is driven by user experience (UX) and not your technology portfolio. He goes on to ask, “How can you do that without training your staff to think like that?”

If you’re looking for a testament to the sharp developmental changes this industry has experienced and learn how to adequately respond to them, InfoComm 2015 is the place to do it.

We boosted the show education catalog by more than 40 original courses, sessions and workshops to address your latest technology needs. And at the show’s Opening Keynote you’ll even hear that the Internet of Things is now smack dab in the AV industry’s wheelhouse.

This year, the keynote takes the form of a thought-leadership panel moderated by The New York Times Lead Technology Writer/Reporter Nick Bilton (pictured, above).
