A note from AVPro Global CEO: 
Greetings from South Dakota! With July 4th just around the corner and the economy having fits and starts with the pandemic the AV business appears to be on the mend with customers freeing up budgets and re-starting projects. There are so many new and exciting developments in audio and video distribution that missing the main trade events is unfortunate. In the News this month – The ISF – Imaging Science Foundation turns 25 this year! If you missed it – we have posted all of our videos from Virtual InfoComm for your review. We have a great article by Mr. Alan Brawn on Conference Room Needs and a story on using our new Seven Multimedia Generator/Analyzer for sync testing in broadcast applications. AVPro Edge was also selected as a CEPro “Bullet Brand” in the June/July issue for our connectivity solutions thanks to our great dealers who wrote us into the competition – and voted for our solutions! Congrats to the product development, support, sales and marketing teams for getting us to the table – we intend to stay at the top by continuing to develop connectivity solutions aimed at our core markets. Thanks for continuing to support AVPro and the News – enjoy!
