Every year, the Event Production Network invests in its members to ensure that they meet a North American standard of AV excellence.
Recently, the 27 AV/Live Event Production member companies of the EPN met for nearly a week at its Leadership Symposium in St. Louis to share ideas, successes and best practices that they can share with meeting planners and event organizers.
More than 130 live-event production professionals took advantage of four different education tracks to help advance their craft.
For example, the Creative Solutions and Production Design track shared knowledge about the pre-production and planning processes in various areas:
CAD/Rendering
Content Templating
Set Design
Producing
Video Production
Graphic Design
Project Management
For the Lead Techs track, several key topics were taught, including customer service, professional representation and leadership. Lead technicians serve a pivotal role that requires technical expertise, leadership abilities and excellent problem-solving skills.
Member company executives and middle managers held workshops focused on company culture and leadership.
In the spirit of mutual collaboration and an understanding of raising the bar for one, raises the bar for all in the Network, the local EPN member company in St. Louis, Ironman Sound Industries, a Markey’s company, hosted a tour of its offices and warehouse to share guidance on procedures and efficiencies. EPN members invest in continuous improvement through new training and shared best practices to provide meeting planners and event organizers with a quality AV planning experience. That’s why our 27 members participated in the EPN Leadership Symposium in St. Louis last month. Enjoy the video!
