DECEMBER 2016

Dear Friends,

It’s December, the season of year-end round-ups, which lend an opportunity to reflect on the milestones of the year and other performance indicators and trends we might have missed. But one time a year is hardly enough to stay on top of things.

To that end, InfoComm has just introduced the Pro-AV Business Index, a free monthly update to give a snapshot of the health of the commercial audiovisual industry.

To stay informed of AV business conditions, including the billing/sales and employment index, don’t miss these reports. And if you want to get the report earlier than anyone else and other perks, join InfoComm’s AV Intelligence Panel.

Visit our website to learn more about the panel and take the survey to see if you are qualified to join.

Finally, we would like to thank you for your dedication to excellence in professional AV. We look forward to continuing to promote the industry in 2017. Happy New Year.

Sincerely,

Now into the third year of being an APEx company, the audiovisual solutions provider has seen firsthand the benefits of maintaining this level of commitment to this industry.

Matthew Deayton, Global Business Development Director, says: “Being one of a few APAC-focused system integration companies to hold APEx sets Vega apart from the pack. This has a direct positive impact on our bottom line.”
