Congwei Chua

Technology Solutions Architect, PTS Consulting

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.
Justin M. Bolger - AVIXA

Senior Specialist, Digital Community, AVIXA

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.
who we are? TRUST US FOR RELIABILITY! We embody both history and innovation in Digital Signage. One of the most prevalent challenges faced by IT managers is maintaining control over machine management and having a platform that enables them to meet project launch objectives on the designated day across all machines. We excel at achieving this! 2008 From the outset, the drive to elevate the Digital Signage market through Voome was so potent that in 2008, the company unveiled its inaugural solution, “Voome 4” – a comprehensive and sophisticated platform for Digital Signage. Its global reception was enthusiastic, propelling its rapid expansion. Six years later, it metamorphosed into a software masterpiece: an ultimate content management system, aggregator, and platform proficient in handling and disseminating all forms of multimedia content across any digital screen. 2014 Since September 2014, Voome has fully embraced the potential of cloud technology, swiftly establishing a scalable infrastructure. Dedicated to obtaining hardware certifications, it incorporated device management and diagnostic systems from the outset. This robust framework garnered the interest of renowned international enterprises, leading to pilot tests that later expanded across all sectors: from offices to production, logistics to retail outlets. Consolidating under a unified cloud infrastructure, Voome achieved unprecedented synergy. Since 2019, it has extended its presence to cruise ships as well. At Voome, the security of your content is our top priority. We are ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certified.
