“CEDIA Expo
has been instrumental in launching my company, Josh.ai, and gaining exposure to
the custom installation community,” says Alex Capecelatro, CEO of Josh.ai. “Our
very first exhibit was inside the Expo’s Innovation Alley, a corridor
highlighting promising new ventures. Just two years later we took home CEDIA’s
Best New Product Award for Josh Micro, a hardware product we announced at the
Expo. This show is a major highlight for us and we always look forward to
unveiling our latest innovation.”
