Today, AV Matters is a community of over 5,000 AV professionals, delivering thought leadership and industry tips for success.

“We are honored to sponsor this year’s Jumpstart events, reinforcing Planar’s commitment to the live events market,” said Chris Prosio, general manager of Rental and Staging at Planar. “Tom Stimson is a well-regarded leader in the business of AV whose innovative approaches have helped many companies improve their growth and profitability.”
