UPDATE: 1:12 p.m. CST

Take a look at some of the Twitter conversation from around the show through two days:

UPDATE: 10:31 a.m. CST

In many cases, the term ‘digital signage’ is an outdated descriptor. LED technology has moved past the wall and is now part of creating a holistic and immersive environment. This example was captured by Tom Custer, Vice President at FRCH Nelson.

UPDATE: 10:25 a.m. CST

eSports has become a major part of the global entertainment landscape in the past few years. This year Blizzard is showing why Pro AV is a natural partner for the competitive gaming atmosphere.

This video comes from Stan Thomas, a Manufacturer Representative for Blizzard and other brands.

Litwin kicked off day two at the AVIXA Women’s Council Breakfast to learn about the state of women in the Pro AV business and what is being done to improve the gender balance in the industry.

End users made up 37% of InfoComm 2026's 28,132 attendees

End users made up 37% of InfoComm 2026's 28,132 attendees

AVIXA reports InfoComm 2026 drew 28,132 verified attendees from 94 countries to Las Vegas, with end users making up 37%. Microsoft and Cisco keynotes centered on AI agents for the meeting room. For enterprise workplace and IT teams, the show's award-winning gear and cross-platform pitches are now landing in fall buying cycles.

  • 01A 37% end-user share at a pro AV trade show is a usable benchmark: more than one in three badges belonged to organizations that deploy the equipment, which changes who exhibitors build their demos for.
  • 02The sharper question to put to a collaboration vendor after this show is which platform an AI meeting feature actually runs on. According to AVIXA, Cisco's keynote framed intelligent systems and open collaboration ecosystems as working across any platform including Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Zoom, while Microsoft tied its voice agents to Teams Phone and Teams Rooms.
  • 03The 170-meter Cat5e reach BZBGEAR's Matt Richards cited to CE Pro for the XTREME-PRO, part of the XLink-ONE family that took Best of Show at InfoComm 2026 from AV Technology, is a manufacturer spec, not an independent test; for facilities with runs past 100 meters it is worth a bench check before fiber is designed out.

Smyrna Baseball League in Tennessee is launching free live streaming across all seven of its fields through Hometown Live, with sponsors rather than subscription fees covering the six-figure project cost. Nevco Media Group is funding the initiative by matching the league with national and local advertisers, while the platform integrates scoring data, statistics, and video in a unified experience.

  • 01Nevco Media Group is funding a six-figure streaming project for Smyrna Baseball League by matching sponsors to cover technology costs instead of charging families subscription fees.
  • 02Each of seven fields receives a Nevco ONE scoring controller, Scorebird NeST device, and auto-switching cameras, with real-time scores and statistics integrated directly alongside video.
  • 03The partnership structure expands with the league's construction plans: new fields added by SBL trigger new technology installations, preventing the system from becoming outdated.
