InfoComm 2024 Will Spotlight the Future of Conferencing and Collaboration
The future of conferencing and collaboration will take center stage at InfoComm 2024 on June 8-14 (exhibits 12-14) at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The show’s wide-ranging program spotlights the latest developments in hybrid working with insightful presentations by industry experts, leading solutions providers on the trade show floor, and expert-led tours.
“Conferencing and collaboration solutions continue to thrive, especially now that many organizations are embracing hybrid work,” said Annette Sandler, Senior Director of Live Content, U.S. and Canada, AVIXA, producer of InfoComm. “At the show, we’ll explore the benefits and pitfalls that emerging technology like AI, virtual reality, and the metaverse bring to conferencing and collaboration, and also examine the important staples of this pro AV solution — clear audio connections and flexible meeting spaces.”
On Tues., June 11, InfoComm will present the half-day Emerging Trends program, which will uncover the disruptions that are paving the way for a new era of integrated, intelligent pro AV solutions. In the session “How Clear is Your Crystal Ball?

The Emerging Trends program will also feature a discussion on how market dynamics, changing user needs, and technological advances are altering the pro AV landscape and explore how to transform spaces with pioneering AV design. Attendees will also experience a chat session with an AI personal assistant, which will provide real-time, personalized insights into the future of conferencing, collaboration, and pro AV design.
