Morning Momentum: Learning Kicked Off Early
We kicked things off strong with three informative sessions. All three sessions were full of actionable takeaways — and packed rooms!
Clear Digital: Unlock Your Digital Potential
SMART: Transform Teaching with Lumio
Tech on Display: Over 30 Vendor Booths
From the latest in video display and projection to collaboration tools, UC solutions, and content creation platforms, the exhibit floor was buzzing all day. With over 30 booths and dozens of hands-on demos, attendees had the opportunity to see, touch, and try the latest technology — all while getting insights directly from manufacturer experts.
Experience Areas That Stole the Spotlight
Attendees had full access to six immersive experience areas that turned heads and sparked ideas:
Command the Vision – Video Wall Control Experience: A live control room simulation where users managed content across large video walls — perfect for security, operations, or Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs).
Immersive Reality Experience: An interactive, multi-sensory room with virtual floors and walls that transported visitors to new dimensions of engagement.
Clear Digital Experience: From touchscreens to mobile kiosks, this zone showed how to connect people and technology in real-world settings.
Innovative Production Studio Experience: A content creator’s dream — with plug-and-play setups for podcasting, automated streaming, and professional content creation.
Audio Experience: Our live audio demo space on the 1st floor gave attendees the chance to hear the difference that top-tier sound solutions can make.
And not to be missed: the Main Stage Experience, where a full-scale event setup showed how professional Audio, Video, and Lighting brings presentations and performances to life.
Afternoon Sessions: Big Ideas from Big Names
Throughout the afternoon, attendees packed into dynamic and informative sessions. Each session delivered real-world strategies and tools that attendees could apply immediately in their own businesses and institutions. Couldn’t attend or missed a session?
