Reflecting on @InfoComm India 2025, it is clear that this year’s edition was not just an exhibition , but a platform for transformative experiences based on meeting with many exhibitors and attendees. Over three days of innovation, inspiring conversations and the exploration of cutting-edge technologies, AV professionals from across India, Asia Pacific, GCC and beyond came together to exchange ideas, build networks and shape the future of the industry.
From the outset, the event demonstrated the scale, professionalism and global relevance of InfoComm India. Walking the show floor, I was struck by the diversity of technologies on display, from immersive audiovisual solutions to integrated AV automation systems. Yet, beyond the technologies themselves, the true highlight was the people and ideas that brought them to life.
One of the most valuable aspects of @InfoComm India is the opportunity to engage with industry leaders and visionaries who continue to shape the AV ecosystem globally:
@David Labuskes :The driving force behind AVIXA’s global management, whose insights and vision continue to inspire.
@Sarah Joyce Joyce: A pleasure to reconnect and exchange perspectives on the evolving AV landscape.
@Jonathan Seller, CAE: Meeting such a respected industry leader reinforces the importance of thought leadership and mentorship.
@TS Gopalakrishnan, CTS-D, CTS-I: Often referred to as the Godfather of the AV community across Asia Pacific, GCC & MEA, it is always a privilege to discuss the latest developments with you.
@Manoj Kumar K: Whether in Qatar, India, or elsewhere, our conversations continue to be enriching and insightful.
@Monisha Devaiah : A formidable force in marketing and an unwavering supporter of the AV community, your leadership and energy were truly inspiring.

@Ajay Nare – Thank you for making the trip to Mumbai; it was great to meet even briefly and I look forward to staying connected.
To those I couldn’t meet amidst the fast-paced schedule, time flew by with such rewarding engagements — I look forward to reconnecting soon.
One of the key highlights for me was participating in AVIXA Xchange Live, where I had the opportunity to share a dynamic and insightful session alongside @Mohannad Mousa, CTS and @Urmil Vaidhya , with the esteemed @Marc A. RÉMOND in the audience. Hosted by the exceptional @Monisha Devaiah , the session explored questions such as:
How Xchange positions itself among other digital ProAV communities.
How professionals leverage Xchange for collaboration, learning and innovation.
The impact of Xchange on the growth of the AV industry.
What motivates individuals to become Xchange Advocates.
It was a highly energizing session, full of ideas, experiences and perspectives on how digital communities like Xchange are reshaping professional development, mentorship and industry collaboration. The one-hour session felt far too short to cover the breadth of insight shared — highlighting the ongoing relevance and growth of AVIXA Xchange in the global AV ecosystem.
Beyond networking and sessions, InfoComm India 2025 showcased state-of-the-art technologies that are transforming the AV landscape:
Immersive visualization and projection solutions.
Advanced AV automation and control systems.
Integrated collaboration platforms for enterprise and education.
Cutting-edge sound, lighting and video solutions.
The exhibition floor reflected a vibrant mix of innovation, creativity and practical solutions, reinforcing why InfoComm India continues to be a hub for knowledge exchange and business growth.
