Amazing Scenes From the Exertis Almo Party!

If you missed the Exertis Almo party at InfoComm 2022, then you missed out on a rocking good time! Here are some of the highlights from an incredible event.

Plus, you can catch our conversation with Sam Taylor, COO at Exertis Almo, to get his thoughts on the Almo acquisition and what it means for the future of the AV industry.

“We’re bringing together two great companies and we’re using best practices from both companies so we’re becoming better than we each were separately. Combined now, it gives us scale. We have a hundred salespeople across the US calling on our customer base. We went from seven warehouses to fourteen that we can draw inventory from for our customers,” explained Taylor.

AV integrators are buying scale because meeting rooms now run like software

AV integrators are buying scale because meeting rooms now run like software

Forté’s acquisition of Vega Global, adding more than 750 employees across 17 APAC countries, is a prominent 2026 sign of consolidation in enterprise AV, according to AV Magazine. At InfoComm 2026, Cisco, Crestron and HP showed room platforms centered on ongoing management, with Cisco and NVIDIA introducing RoomOS 26 AI agents that run on in-room hardware and HP tying Poly Lens to its Workforce Experience Platform, as reported by AVIXA and HP. Separately, Cisco’s Webex AI roadmap adds “agentic” automation and governance that reaches beyond room systems into the contact center and workforce management, according to No Jitter. As a result, standards, telemetry, security and service-level performance are taking a larger role in how contracts are evaluated, influencing both vendor choice and integrator consolidation.

  • 01When services are 38% of channel revenue and hardware is 36%, the integrator RFP stops being about the bill of materials and starts being about uptime, monitoring and lifecycle outcomes, per AV Magazine citing AVIXA channel research.
  • 02“Edge AI in the room” shifts how outages and performance issues play out: RoomOS 26 adds on-device agents and features such as Audio Zones that can lessen reliance on cloud connectivity, but it also increases requirements for endpoint compute, device governance and disciplined update processes, according to AVIXA and rAVe [PUBS].
  • 03Consolidation is becoming a procurement feature: Forté’s move from a federation model to owned operations signals multinationals want one throat to choke for standards, security and service outcomes across regions, per AV Magazine.

Sony’s BRAVIA Pro displays run VITEC Avedia IPTV with no external media player

Sony’s BRAVIA Pro displays run VITEC Avedia IPTV with no external media player

Sony Electronics and VITEC announced a global integration that lets Sony BRAVIA professional displays run VITEC’s Avedia IPTV and digital signage software natively, eliminating external media players, according to PR Newswire and AV Magazine. Management runs through VITEC’s CMS, and the companies say it can scale to thousands of displays across corporate, hospitality, healthcare, venues, and public facilities, per PR Newswire and invidis. For enterprise IT and facilities teams, the practical shift is a new procurement and governance model: treat “display plus software” as one Android-based endpoint, then manage it like an IT fleet with fewer devices to install but stricter expectations around app lifecycle, security requirements, and vendor roadmaps. The announcement also lands alongside Sony’s previously reported Bravia Inc. joint venture with TCL, which invidis says will move operational control in April 2027, a reminder that longer-running display deployments should track who sets the roadmap over the life of the fleet.

  • 01Player-less IPTV changes the bill of materials: endpoints shift from “screen + player + mounts + power” to a single managed display, which can compress install labor and reduce failure points.
  • 02The phrase “thousands of displays” (PR Newswire) is the right scale test: if the CMS and network design cannot handle a four-digit endpoint count, this architecture won’t match the promise.
  • 03Sony’s display governance is expected to change in 2027 under the TCL-led Bravia Inc. venture (invidis). For deployments that will still be operating then, teams should address it now as part of contract terms.

AIMS adds Bolin Technology and ITDev to advance IPMX implementation

AIMS adds Bolin Technology and ITDev to advance IPMX implementation

Bolin Technology, a PTZ camera maker, and ITDev, an FPGA design firm, have joined the Alliance for IP Media Solutions (AIMS) to support IPMX and open AV-over-IP interoperability. AIMS leadership says the additions ground IPMX work in real-world implementation, from endpoint hardware to the FPGA IP used in gateways and processing nodes.

  • 01Bolin Technology and ITDev joined AIMS in late August to support IPMX and open AV-over-IP standards.
  • 02Bolin supplies PTZ cameras and AV-over-IP products supporting NDI, Dante AV, and Fast HEVC; ITDev is an Altera and AMD FPGA design services and IP partner for IPMX, SMPTE ST 2110, and video processing.
  • 03The article advises buyers to ask vendors how IPMX support will be provided (native silicon, FPGA, gateway, or software stack) and to make certification and interoperability testing part of acceptance criteria.
