A new year brings a fresh start — and for event planners, communications teams, and production managers, January is the perfect moment to step back, evaluate what worked, and set new goals for the events ahead. The AV landscape continues to evolve quickly, influenced by rising audience expectations, hybrid work cultures, and rapid advances in technology.

How to create a memorable event with AV technology that inspires, connects, and celebrates The holiday season has always been a time for corporate teams to pause, reflect, and recharge.
