AV Week

AV Week October 19-25

AV Week is approaching and InfoComm International wants to help you, the AV professional, stage events and activities to educate clients and users about the benefits of AV in business, education, government, healthcare, worship and more. Visit www.AVWeek.org for everything you need to promote and host an AV Week event. Also be sure to visit the NEW AV Week Store. No matter what type of event you have, AV Week merchandise makes for great give-a-ways, prizes and more!

Idea #4: AV Jeopardy

Create a game quizzing contestants about the AV industry — what does the industry consist of in terms of products, who uses AV, how does AV help people, how big is the industry, etc. You could stage the game after making a school presentation or if you are planning a client event, you could get your clients involved as the contestants.

What are you planning for AV Week? Submit your AV Week event plans at avweek@infocomm.org!
