With over 143,000 net square-foot of exhibits, sound rooms and highly engaging activations on the show floor, CEDIA Expo 2022 marked a strong return to live events.

“CEDIA Expo 2022 was an impressive return to in-person events for the custom systems integration channel,” said Jason McGraw, CTS, group vice president for CEDIA Expo and KBIS, Emerald. “The strong turnout of attendees to this year’s show exceeded expectations and we performed much better than most industry events held this year in terms of working back to pre-pandemic numbers.

“Over 40% of attendees were first-time attendees, demonstrating our continued commitment to connecting exhibitors with new customers. Attendees were serious about business and were fully engaged with our exhibitors. There was an energy and buzz of excitement clearly evident on the show floor. We can’t wait for CEDIA Expo 2023 in Denver, Colorado!”

Featuring 50 new exhibitors, this year’s CEDIA Expo connected technology integrators, manufacturers and design professionals and provided attendees with the opportunity to re-engage with manufacturers of audio, video, lighting, signal distribution, control systems, energy management, security and emerging market technologies.

Various education sessions were held throughout the three-day show, such as the CEDIA Conference, Manufacturer Product Training (MPT), and the Smart Stage and Innovation Hub Stage programmes. The CEDIA Conference featured 55 sessions focused on formal training and professional advancement, advocacy activations, and insightful speakers on emerging trends.
