It is an End-User Edition of rAVe [TV] as Tim and I (and maybe Gary) dig into what is driving today’s AV market — from the rise of esports to new data shaping integration strategy. We welcome Mike Abernathy of NSCA to unpack highlights from the “2025 Financial Analysis of the Industry” report: improved profitability, the rise of managed services and what these trends mean for integrators and end users alike.
We will also cover the latest headlines from across Pro AV — including Dell’s AI-powered Pro Plus Earbuds, LG’s Express Install for Teams Rooms, the Lena AI platform launch, the Mimo Monitors × Wsper partnership, and the newly announced ISE 2026 keynote featuring Sol Rashidi.
