Call For 2027 Presenters

The Call for Presenters - Coming Soon!

InfoComm 2027 is looking for industry insiders, innovators, and technology experts who can help AV professionals navigate what’s next while staying focused on the people who use these systems every day.

We’re seeking practical, forward-looking sessions that share real-world lessons attendees can apply immediately. Bring us your best ideas and hard-won knowledge to help your peers make better decisions, create more meaningful experiences, and move the AV industry forward.
 

Submissions Open: October 1, 2026

Submission Deadline: October 30, 2026

We encourage participants from all backgrounds to apply.

At InfoComm and across all AVIXA platforms, we seek to create and champion an environment of giving, sharing, and mutual respect; not only for our members, but in the pronounced way our mission touches the world. 

But we cannot do it alone. We need your participation and referrals because it is not a choice of expertise OR diversity: the diverse thoughts and experiences of women, non-binary genders, Black, Indigenous, and all people of color expand our industry knowledge and represent a better future for our AV community.

About InfoComm

InfoComm is the world’s most vital pro AV show.

Pro AV integrators, technology managers, manufacturers, and dealers come together for a close-up look at the core technologies powering modern connectivity and the people propelling them forward. InfoComm is where AV technologists gain insights and skills they can apply to current and future projects.

Attendees leave with practical knowledge, new perspectives, and actionable strategies they can bring back to their teams to drive the next generation of experiences.

Audience

InfoComm serves professionals who design, deploy, manage, and support audiovisual and integrated technology solutions.

Sessions should be geared toward an intermediate-to-advanced audience and emphasize practical, real-world applications, user experience outcomes, business impact, and technology strategy rather than product promotion.

Submission Guidelines

What We're Looking For In 2027

  • Applied AI for AV: real-world workflows in conferencing, digital signage, learning spaces, content creation, and live events

  • Accessibility by Design: inclusive AV, wayfinding, assistive technologies, and user experience

  • AV Networking & IT Essentials: networking fundamentals, AV-over-IP, cybersecurity, monitoring, and working with IT teams

  • AV Foundations: practical how-to sessions and best practices for audio, system support, troubleshooting, and operations

  • Hands-On Learning: practical strategies, workflow shortcuts, and interactive learning experiences

  • Real-World AV Case Studies: project outcomes, lessons learned, and implementation takeaways

Vendor-Neutral Content Policy

InfoComm sessions are designed to educate, not sell. Content must remain vendor-neutral and focus on practical, transferable insights rather than promoting a company, product, or service. Presenters may reference specific solutions when relevant, but comparisons should be balanced and support the learning objectives. Overtly promotional content or selling from the stage may result in removal from the program, even after a session has been selected.

Presenter and Submission Requirements

  • Speakers should ensure that the submission content is relevant to the AV industry and its communities.

  • When submitting topic(s), speakers should keep in mind that InfoComm attendees should walk away with action items, best practices, and creative ideas they can implement right away.

  • Speakers should commit to presenting in person at InfoComm in Orlando next June.

  • Any materials needed for your session must be submitted by the deadlines indicated in the speaker portal.

  • Before presenting, speakers must verify the content, confirm that it is their own or properly authorized, and address any required permissions. To support a clear, balanced program, AVIXA reserves the right to revise session titles and descriptions.

  • Note for Suppliers: If you are an industry supplier submitting a proposal, you will not be considered unless you are a contracted InfoComm 2027 exhibitor. Preference is given to suppliers who include an integrator or end user as a co-presenter. See the FAQs for more info on the supplier speaker policy

How Sessions Are Selected

AVIXA staff and volunteer subject matter experts review each proposal. Because we receive more strong proposals than the program can accommodate, not every qualified submission can be selected. If your session is selected, the Live Content team will notify you by December 17, 2026, and support you throughout the preparation process.

InfoComm submissions are reviewed to identify complete proposals that demonstrate a meaningful contribution to attendees’ professional capabilities and knowledge of the field. Reviewers evaluate presenter or panelist expertise; whether the content is focused, current, practical, or innovative; whether the learning level is appropriate for the audience and topic; whether the proposal includes three actionable learner outcomes; and whether the session design encourages audience questions, interaction, and participation.
