FAIRFAX, VA – April 30, 2024 – InfoComm 2024, June 8-14 (exhibits 12-14) at the Las Vegas Convention Center, will present a comprehensive business and project management education program for AV integrators, featuring NSCA’s BizSkills full-day program, a state of the industry luncheon presented by AVIXA’s market intelligence team, and much more.
“We designed this program for InfoComm 2024 to provide AV integrators with the skills needed to succeed in today’s business landscape,” said Annette Sandler, Senior Director of Live Content, U.S. and Canada, AVIXA, producer of InfoComm. “AV professionals will learn how to advance project efficiency, hone their soft skills to develop strong customer relationships, and position themselves for new business opportunities in the AV industry.”
NSCA BizSkills will return to InfoComm as a full-day workshop on Tues., June 11. The program will empower participants with invaluable insights and tools crucial to enhancing business operations within the pro AV industry.
In the “Integration Business Finance” workshop, attendees will gain a better understanding of the financial management of an integration company, how to fully leverage financial documents such as balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow statements, and how various company decisions impact cashflow.
The workshop “Integration Business Sales” focuses on understanding the value of the customer relationship by outlining communication steps that will benefit integration business development leaders, sales team members, and anybody who engages with customers.
The “Integration Business Operations” workshop will concentrate on integration management, reducing project risk through better project preparation, and how to use business analytics to continually monitor and improve efficiency and profitability.
The workshop “Integration Business Project Management” will provide an overview of the project life cycle and the impact that effective project management can have — from sales initiation and strategic planning to project management execution and project completion plus closeout documentation.
Tom LeBlanc, NSCA Executive Director, will lead the NSCA Luncheon Plenary Session, which will examine factors that define the state of the industry at the midpoint of 2024, including customer demand for emerging technologies, economic trends impacting integrators, and more.
