Integrate to combine CEDIA Expo and InfoComm International

Integrate will return to the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre from 27 to 29 August 2013. This year’s show, delivered in association with InfoComm International and incorporating the CEDIA (the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association) Asia Pacific Expo, will showcase the latest in integrated AV IT and electronic systems.

For the first time, Integrate will bring the commercial and residential sectors together in one complete industry event to create Australasia’s most influential hub for networking, education and technological innovation.

The new-look event will showcase the latest industry trends and technologies in AV IT for the education, government, corporate, healthcare, venues and events, retail and worship sectors, alongside the very best in residential technology including audio, video, lighting, entertainment, home networking, energy management, automation and more.

The show will host more than 500 brands, including AMX, Extron, Hills SVL Group, Kramer, LG, Jands, Production Audio Video Technology, Alloys International, Kordz and Philips Dynalite.

InfoComm University will return in 2013, bringing the latest global trends and insights from InfoComm 2013 in Florida, with a series of seminars and manufacturer forums. This year’s program will culminate with a keynote from InfoComm’s new Executive Director and DEO Dave Labuskes.

In addition, CEDIA training will offer three days of education, certification and manufacturer product training from industry experts, including: John Dahl, Director of Education at THX Ltd; Chris McGowen, Senior Consultant at Len Wallis Audio; and Clare Ward, CEDIA Asia Pacific Executive Director.

For the very first time in the event’s history, Integrate 2013 will present a series of real-life application simulations on the show floor, where visitors can experience technology working in situ. Back by popular demand, the Technologies for Worship Pavilion - sponsored by Technologies for Worship Magazine - will provide technicians, volunteers and house of worship staff with the chance to participate in a series of workshops and seminars.

With the biggest show floor in its history, event organisers say Integrate 2013 is the definitive industry event in the Southern Hemisphere. Free online registration and more information is available at www.integrate-expo.com.
