¡Hola a todos! Estoy encantada de ser parte de esta comunidad. Soy Virginia, Gerente de Marketing y Relaciones Globales en Proyecciones Digitales – GPA Argentina y Uruguay. Con 13 años de experiencia en la industria AV, me apasiona la innovación, el arte y todo lo que impulsa nuevas formas de crear y conectar. A lo largo de mi carrera, he buscado integrar la interculturalidad y la sustentabilidad en cada proyecto, porque creo que solo con una mirada consciente y diversa es posible generar un impacto real y duradero.

I am a former sound designer for theater who has taken those skills and put them to use in the AV Systems Design and Integration field.
