Dear Friends,

Empowering women in AV has been an ongoing initiative at InfoComm International^®.

At InfoComm India 2016, the Women of InfoComm Network (WIN) brought together a group of female visionaries to share their journeys to success, from Kirti Shetti (CTS^®) of Kramer and Mahua Mukhopadhyay of AV Integration Distribution to Annu Jamloki of Harman.

Stories they told inspired every listener in the room, but what struck us the most was just how passionate these leaders were in supporting fellow women professionals and the positive energy they brought to the audience. It was fantastic to experience the magic that could happen when a community of like-minded individuals was brought together.

We look forward to bringing this forum to other cities and seeing this community flourish.

Sincerely,

Read About Virtual Reality in Live AV

Earlier this year, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg predicted that virtual reality (VR) could "change the way we live, work and communicate in many ways."

Besides the most obvious applications such as gaming and virtual travel, VR is making its way to markets that most interest AV companies, including retail and corporate, as well as live entertainment.

In his article for InfoComm, "Virtual Reality Could Transform Live Events," Dan Daley gives an overview of the latest developments in this space. He also introduces some of the audio and video technology companies with new tools to shape VR immersion in live entertainment.
