A Message From the Directors
|
|
Dear Friends,
Here at InfoComm International®, we thrive on reaching out to all the different countries in our
region to provide resources that help you develop as audiovisual professionals. For example, in
October, we hosted three online webinars especially for our Italian audience. Many participated and
enjoyed hearing the latest from industry experts, with topics ranging from the benefits of augmented
reality to other industry trends. If you're Italian (or speak the language), we recommend that you
check them out
at your convenience.
For everyone else in the EMEA region, be sure to keep up with all our great
recorded webinars,
available any time for your learning pleasure.
Sincerely,
|
