“The Commercial Integrator Expo Conference encompasses connection and education through thought leadership, professional development and insightful speakers on emerging trends,” said Jason McGraw, CTS, group vice president for CEDIA Expo, Commercial Integrator Expo and KBIS, Emerald. “We have collaborated with DSF, IMCCA and NSCA to provide timely and relevant content sessions for integrators to expand their industry knowledge and to discover new opportunities to help accelerate their businesses forward.

– Dimensional Innovations’ Chris Riebschlager and Chad Hutson will present a compelling course, “Above the Clouds: Integrating Machine Learning, Virtual Reality and Immersive Technologies into the Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum.” The session will examine the proper considerations for integrating technology into cultural centers or museum spaces to achieve learning objectives and rethinking museum exhibits through the lens of design and technology to drastically alter a museum-goer’s experience.
– Aaron Kipfer, chief technology officer for Neoti, will present the unique challenges in constructing a 92-foot expandable dvLED video wall in Charlotte, NC.

– David J. Danto, director of emerging technology for IMCCA and director of UC strategy and research for HP/Poly, will host an engaging presentation on designing workspaces to be magnets, not mandated environments. Danto’s presentation, “Magnet Not Mandate – Designing Workspaces for the Office,” will share insights on creating collaboration centers of excellence and equipping them to support the mission.
