The event celebrates a year of tremendous success for the world’s leading provider of video and audio solutions.

Hernandez, Jr. commented on the significance of the event for Avid: “Nearly two years ago, Avid embarked on a bold and transformational journey to recapture the imagination of the media and entertainment industry, and to lead our industry in the face of rapid change and enormous pressure on business models. While there is still so much more to do, we have made tremendous progress over the past two years. We thank Nasdaq for the honor of opening the trading day, and remain grateful to our customers, partners, employees, and shareholders for their ongoing support.”
