14 Industry Talent Standouts of 2014

Jason Taylor, CEO at M3 Technology Group
Nominated by Phillip Cordell, engineering/service manager at M3 Technology Group

“In a time when many AV Integrators are downsizing, Jason Taylor has found new ways of creating business opportunities and expanding M3’s interests,” says Cordell, also known as Hi-Phi, the only known AV rapper. “While firmly planted in AV, Jason is always looking for smart, new areas to expand the business.”

Taylor led the development of a new structured cabling division to diversify M3’s base and remain on the cutting edge of the AV/IT union, says Cordell. M3 has also developed a stronger focus on managed services and other forms of recurring revenue, leading to the growth of two new office branches in 2014, he says.

“Jason keeps his eyes on the technological horizon, his finger on the pulse of the industry and always leads the company with assurance,” says Cordell. “Plus, he lets me rap at work.”
