1. Location, Location, Location. We’re bringing the show to you! We realize that not everyone has the time or budget to attend InfoComm each year, so we decided to grab a slice of the big show and take it to the Javits Center in the heart of New York City.

2. It’s a Quick Trip. We know you’re busy and that is why InfoComm Connections is only a two-day event. The education sessions and workshops are packed with information so you learn a lot in a short time.

3. Customize Your Learning. You can customize and enhance your experience by attending any of the half-day paid workshops. They cover a range of topics from the evolution of AV to digital content to live events. (Require additional fee)

4. Who Doesn’t Love Free Education? InfoComm Connections is more than just seeing the top brands for commercial AV: Your registration includes two days of complimentary education sessions on AV solutions plus two Keynote speakers.

5. Don’t Just Look at Products. You’ll get to see, touch and play with products for audio, conferencing, digital signage, projection, security, plus so much more. It will all be right there in the Exhibit Hall.

6. Networking Never Hurts. Hundreds of technology managers and AV professionals have already registered. Take this as an opportunity to join and connect with your industry peers.

7. Quality Over Quantity. As an ANSI Accredited Standards Developer (ASD) organization, InfoComm International® provides industry standards as the foundation for quality audiovisual systems. That’s why we only offer the best information possible in all of our sessions and workshops.

InfoComm Connections will take place on November 11-12, 2015 at the Javits Convention Center in New York, New York. You can register here. Use VIP Code 7EM for a free pass to the Exhibit Hall, Keynote sessions, and over 25 free education sessions.
