Q5 Has AV-over-IP actually improved interoperability or just shifted the complexity? Are we seeing a new wave of vendor lock-in disguised as ecosystems? #AVinTheAm #AVtweeps

Q4 Would true interoperability commoditize AV or elevate it? #AVintheAm #AVtweeps

Q3 Are APIs the real future of AV interoperability? If so, why aren’t they more standardized? If so, why do two “standards-based” products still require hours of troubleshooting to talk to each other? #AVintheAm #AVtweeps

Q2 Should there be a universal AV “compliance” standard like we see in other industries? Is the AV industry too fragmented to ever fully standardize? We are called "Integrators" for a reason. #AVintheAm #AvTweeps

Q1 What’s one standard, or lack of one, that you think is holding the AV industry back the most? #AVinTheAm #AVtweeps

Q3 As an industry where are we overcomplicating things for the customer? Are end-users buying technology or are they buying confidence? #AVintheAm #AVtweeps

Today's #AvintheAm topic: "Handling the Business" #AVtweeps

Q5 What does “AV-first thinking” actually look like in a modern workplace, campus, or venue build? #AVinTheAm #AVtweeps

Q4 If you could change one thing about how projects are planned today to include better AV, what would it be? #AVintheAM #AVtweeps

Q3 Has technology finally made enough of an impact in our everyday lives that clients are starting to expect AV earlier in the process, or are we still pushing uphill? #AVinTheAM #AVtweep

Q2 How do we better communicate the value of AV to stakeholders who only see it as screens and speakers? What’s one mistake you see repeatedly when AV is not included in early planning? #AVintheAm #AVtweeps

Q1 Why is AV still sometimes treated as an add-on instead of a foundational layer in building design? #AVintheAm #AVtweeps

Today's #AVintheAm Topic: "Before the 1st wire is Pulled" #AVtweeps

Q5 With more end users now in the room, are events in general evolving to meet their specific needs? What about smaller regional events? Any shows stand out from the crowd? #AVinTheAM #AVtweeps

Q4 What’s your honest take on AV shows, conferences, and roadshows today? Are they still delivering the value our industry needs? If you could add to the suggestion box for the ideal AV event experience, what would you change or add? Or leave as is? #AVinTheAM #AVtweeps

(Part2) Q3 And does that element of serendipity and unplanned discovery ultimately drive more meaningful tech insights than a carefully planned agenda? #AVinTheAM #AVtweeps
