The AV/IT industry is back! We heard through the grapevine that the InfoComm 2023 show in Orlando, exhibitor booths, and attendee registration were up 30 percent over last year. I’ll update this as soon as I receive the official numbers, but by all accounts, the AV/IT industry is back—en force.
As editors of Future’s AV Technology, Digital Signage, Mix, Sound & Video Contractor, and Tech & Learning, we are not surprised the show was a success because the number of nominated entries into our Best of Show well surpassed pre-2020 numbers. We hired more judges this year than ever before.
We pride ourselves in the integrity of our award programs. Each publication engages with AV/IT professionals who are experts in the technologies specific to the categories we assign them to evaluate. Our judges are CTS-certified technology managers, engineers, integrators, and consultants.
We require that our judges talk with product managers, engineers, or other manufacturers’ representatives to best evaluate products and solutions for innovation, feature set, ease of installation/use, and potential overall value to the installation/institution. Our judges cannot make themselves known to the companies whose products they are evaluating. Future pays our judges for their valuable time the expertise.
Congratulations to the R&D and product teams who have developed new products and solutions or iterated upon existing ones to make them relevant and necessary in today’s environment.
We hope you are as excited to learn more about these products as we were reading them during the nomination process.
The list of Best of InfoComm 2023 award winners is below. In the coming days, we’ll share more details about each and what the judges had to say.
