Montreal is the Next Stop to Say "Oui" on the 2014 Stampede Big Book of AV Tour

The spring 2014 Stampede Big Book of AV (BBOAV) Tour, the pro AV industry's biggest annual roadshow, will roll into Montreal, Canada on February 20, where AV industry dealers and manufacturers will showcase their latest solutions at the Sheraton Montreal Airport hotel.

"Each stop on the 2014 tour features a compelling mix of product demonstration, business building idea sessions, networking opportunities -- and more than a few surprises," said Stampede Presentation Products Inc. president and COO Kevin Kelly.

The Montreal stop will feature a presentation by Epson's Judy Burns on the present and future of 3LCD technology. Burns has previously represented brands such as InFocus and Proxima, making her an expert in the AV channel.

"Every stop on the BBOAV Tour offers attendees an interactive and engaging experience," Kelly said. "Judy Burns is at the forefront of the AV industry today and her perspective on the current and future shape of the pro AV industry is certain to be compelling."

According to Kelly, BBOAV Tour attendees will also learn how they can immediately begin profiting from the new era of The Internet of Things (IOT). To further address the "Internet of Things" phenomenon, the Montreal stop will feature a designated area for IOT manufacturers, identified by pop-up banners and stands.

Additionally, each session will earn attendees .5 CTS RU credit. Stampede will be offering event incentives such as $500 Stampede credit, a $100 Restaurant.com gift card, and a $50 gift card for attending the BBOAV Tour. Every attendee will also be entered into a drawing to win a 42" LG LCD HD television.

Beyond Montreal, many stops will allow attendees to participate in the International Technology Retail Association (ITRA) annual member meeting and the regional Infocomm Roundtable meeting that offers the opportunity for additional networking and CTS certified training.
