Content, Collaboration, Control — and Modern Work

John Hulen, Crestron's director of channel marketing, education, was joined by Senior Director of Product Marketing Joel Mulpeter on the AVIXA Spotlight Stage for a presentation called “Content, Collaboration, & Control: Crestron’s Vision for the Future of AV.” The session explored how AVoIP technology is revolutionizing content delivery, the power of multi-camera experiences and visual AI direction in collaboration, and how Crestron’s open ecosystem ensures intuitive control across third-party brands.

That was immediately followed by a discussion hosted by Craig Durr, Chief Analyst and Founder of The Collab Collective, “The State of Modern Work: Navigating AI, Hybrid Culture, and Industry Shifts in AV.” The panel covered everything from return-to-office policies to the rise of AI-driven innovations, and how professionals must adapt to the new dynamics shaping how we work and collaborate.

In addition to the question, “What’s happening now,” most trade show attendees are also extremely interested in “What’s happening next?” To help bring the next five years into focus, Hintze appeared on the 2030 Vision Keynote “Exploring the Future of Pro AV,” moderated by AVIXA CEO David Labuskes. Part one-on-one conversation and part group discussion, topics included the new push by some companies to return employees to the office, agentic AI, BYO-AI, sustainability, and the growing demand for improved cameras, mics, and control systems. The big takeaway here? “As we release new products, the entire platform improves,” says Hintze. Learn more here:
