Keynote: Technology by 2025 – Anticipating and Preparing for the Future

With so many technologies emerging on so many fronts, it’s a challenge to keep up. Every advance is billed as “the next big thing.” However, the key to surviving this new industrial revolution is leading it. That requires two key elements of agile businesses: awareness of disruptive technology and a plan to develop talent that can make the most of it. Businesses that are making the most of advances in tech are also in a good place to make the most in terms of return on their investment.

Keynote: Leadership in an Uncertain Future

Strictly by invitation only.

The geopolitical situation in the world today has not been this volatile nor hostile for a long time. The global marketplace is getting fragmented and bifurcated. High inflation on the back of a fragile recovery from the pandemic is threatening to deliver a global recession. The war in Ukraine has further impaired already deteriorating supply chain weaknesses. It would seem a perfect storm is about to descend upon us.

How will this affect businesses, and how do enterprise leaders plan ahead amidst such volatility and uncertainty and balance the near- and long-term market priorities given the risks?

Pro-AV Business Outlook and Trends in Asia

Strictly by invitation only.

AVIXA has released its 2022 Industry Outlook and Trends Analysis (IOTA) report, which highlights that while general economic expansion has slowed due to Covid-19, the pro AV sector is growing fast, with an annual growth rate of 5.9% from 2022–2027. At the same time, headwinds exist in the form of supply chain issues and a threat of recession. While net growth is expected, how much and in what sectors remain questions on the minds of those in the industry.

AV Manager’s Day

Fundamentals of Acoustics

Awareness of how the ambient environment of a space affects the quality and propagation of sound – how, for instance, reflective surfaces, such as walls and floors, create waves of echoes that smear speech intelligibility and musical timbre – has been slow to take root, even in dedicated performance venues. But that’s been changing in recent years, driven by the complexity of sound in modern media and content.

Like no other, the field of acoustics is rife with myth, misinformation and marketing tactics that belie the true science and legacy of the trade. Acousticians and acoustical experts have backgrounds rooted in math and science, and spend years studying and honing their craft. Today, acousticians and acoustic experts work on venues as diverse as classrooms, houses of worship, performance centers, courtrooms, broadcast and recording studios. This two-hour session provides an introduction to the principles of acoustics and their applications and its importance. Fundamental topics include the generation, transmission, and reception of acoustic waves.
