"The AV industry continues to grow each year, in and the growth of InfoComm parallels the success of the industry," said InfoComm Executive Director Randal A. Lemke, Ph.D. "Demands for AV technology have grown dramatically in the education sector, due to new classroom construction and reliance on distance learning.

InfoComm 07 attendees will experience the largest and most dynamic InfoComm ever."
