Almo Professional A/V today announced registration is open for its E4 Philadelphia Expo, a “bonus” event that is part of the distributor’s popular traveling E4 AV Tour.
Taking place on August 15 at the Valley Forge Casino & Resort at the Radisson in King of Prussia, Penn., the E4 Philadelphia Expo gives attendees access to new products — many of which unveiled last month at InfoComm — from 35 of the industry’s top manufacturers.
The free event will also include interactive product workshops, lunchtime roundtable discussions with industry experts, $5,000 in prizes, and endless opportunities for networking.
“If you weren’t able to make it to InfoComm, or if you attended and weren’t able to see everything on your agenda, then the E4 Philadelphia Expo is a fantastic way to catch up in relaxed, inviting environment,” says Melody Craigmyle, vice president of marketing for Almo Professional A/V. “This event gives our local-area partners uninterrupted time with the AV industry’s top manufacturers, including our newest distribution partners, Listen Technologies and SecurityTronix. Attendees will also have access to our Business Development Managers and new Content Creation Services group to discuss how to expand their projects and increase revenue.”
Additionally, the Chief and Da-Lite AV Roadshow will be co-locating with E4 Philly Expo. The truck will showcase Chief’s video wall, menu board and monitor mounts. Da-Lite’s dry erase projection screen, ViewShare and multi-media lectern will also be on display.
Now in its fifth year, the E4 tour continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of AV resellers, integrators and consultants. Credited as the industry’s most specialized one-day dealer event, E4 has traveled to countless cities around the country to serve the product, technical and business training needs of thousands of resellers and installers while creating the ideal forum for professional networking.
The full tour continues in the fall with stops in Boston on October 3 and Washington, D.C. on October 17.
