Dana Jelter - AVIXA (She/Her)

I have 21 years of experience in the audiovisual industry. I started my company in Bolivia in 2005, selling outdoor LED video screens, digital signage systems, LED lighting, and providing large-format digital printing and point-of-sale promotional material manufacturing. During these years, I learned a great deal and worked with prestigious global technology brands in this field. In December 2023, we expanded all our services to the United States. In this new phase, I am collaborating on AV integration projects for clients in South America and within the country.

Prior to selling MediaStar to Uniguest, Shaun was the CEO and owner of MediaStar Systems, a manufacturer of encoders, media gateways, media players and content management software.  Shaun has 30years of VC and PE funded technology business experience developing start up, building companies to trade sale and public floatation.

With 14 years of experience in audio-visual system integration, consultancy, and deployment across the Asia-Pacific region, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the region’s unique challenges and opportunities. I’ve had the opportunity to work on large-scale AV and broadcast systems for some of the world’s leading multinational companies, aligning with global standards to support seamless collaboration and productivity across diverse teams and locations. I enjoy crafting practical, user-focused technology solutions, and increasingly draw on AI and emerging tech to improve workflows and outcomes. Outside of work, I teach immersive media as an adjunct lecturer, where I get to share my curiosity and inspire students to explore what’s possible.

With a background in content strategy, brand management, and community building for global franchises like Star Wars and Star Trek, I’ve spent my career connecting people to the stories they love. At AVIXA, I’m doing the same—only now, the story is AV itself: how it connects, empowers, and transforms us. I’m especially drawn to the intersection of AV and pop culture, immersive tech, and storytelling. I’m here to help others unlock the potential of Xchange—whether it’s building their brand, expanding their reach, or just finding their people.

CTS with 20+ years in Pro AV, specialising in secure, resilient, and human‑centric technology environments. With credentials including ISO 27001 Practitioner, CompTIA Security+, AVIXA CTS, and service on the AVIXA Standards Steering Committee, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective that spans security governance, systems engineering, AV risk, and operational resilience. I also serve as a Steering Committee Member for the AV User Group (London Chapter), supporting industry knowledge‑sharing, manufacturer engagement, and the advancement of best practice across enterprise AV and workplace technology. Across my career, I’ve delivered multi‑regional and global AV/UC deployments, designing and optimising secure collaboration ecosystems across Europe, North America, Africa, and APAC. My work spans Microsoft Teams environments, enterprise meeting rooms, hybrid working platforms, and high‑stakes spaces such as Boardrooms, AGMs, and multi‑site collaboration environments. I approach AI as a socio‑technical system — where risks emerge not only from algorithms, but from architecture, data flows, user behaviour, and the integrated AV/UC environments that shape real‑world experience. I am now expanding my leadership into AI governance and responsible technology, developing capability in ISO/IEC 42001 (AIMS) and the NIST AI RMF to help organisations operationalise AI safely, ethically, and at scale — particularly within AV, workplace, and smart‑building systems.
