Avid® (OTC: AVID) today announced further details and growing momentum for Avid Connect, the inaugural event of the Avid Customer Association, to be held April 4-6, 2014 at the Bellagio in Las Vegas – just prior to the NAB show. George Bodenheimer, Executive Chairman of ESPN, and former Co-Chairman of Disney Media Networks, will deliver the keynote address on the morning of April 6 following an industry leader panel discussion. On Saturday, April 5 the company will reveal the next phases of Avid Everywhere, its vision for the future of the media industry, and will present a technology demo. A full roster of educational breakout sessions to further elaborate on Avid Everywhere for the broadcast, video, and audio communities will take place on the afternoon of
Saturday, April 5.
The Avid Customer Association (ACA) was announced in September 2013 as a comprehensive initiative designed to provide essential strategic leadership to the media industry, collaborate with key industry leaders and visionaries, and deepen relationships between the company and its customers. The multifaceted program will engage its network of broadcast, creative and media customers to address the most important issues facing the media industry today.
“We are overwhelmed by the enthusiasm we’ve seen for this initiative and the interest in our inaugural event, Avid Connect,” said Louis Hernandez, Jr., president and CEO of Avid. “The Avid Customer Association and Avid Connect form the framework to facilitate strategic collaboration across the industry. While we have always placed great importance on staying in close touch with our customers, the ACA allows us to work together on a more strategic level, as the full community comes together to set a path forward for the industry. I’m looking forward to an amazing couple of days preceding NAB.”
Hundreds of customers have registered to attend Avid Connect, with participants representing over 40 countries and the most senior and professional ranks of Avid’s broadcast, audio, and video customer base.
