As hybrid work becomes the norm and customer expectations for immersive experiences continue to rise, organisations that embrace cutting-edge AV hardware will gain a clear competitive advantage. Here are the most impactful hardware-led AV trends that will help companies improve performance in 2026.

Whilst many factors contribute to workplace efficiency, one often underutilised area is audio visual technology. Modern AV solutions can transform how teams communicate, collaborate, and ultimately perform. Here's how businesses can leverage audio visual technology to create a more productive workforce.

The audio visual industry has emerged as the critical enabler of seamless collaboration between remote and in-office teams. The challenge isn't just connecting people anymore; it's creating equity of experience, regardless of where employees choose to work.

LED technology has now evolved to the point where it’s no longer just for arenas and concert stages. Today, it’s moving indoors — into boardrooms, retail spaces and corporate lobbies - places where audiences are often only a few feet away. We explain what’s behind this new trend.

One of the most exciting areas of growth in the AV industry is digital signage and interactive displays. No longer limited to static posters or simple screens, modern AV technology is enabling businesses and organisations to deliver dynamic, responsive, and engaging content.

At AV2000, we’re proud of the audio visual technology that we deliver, and even prouder of the people who come together to help support a great cause. Our cosy Macmillan Coffee Morning was a great opportunity for us to share a cuppa and a generous selection of delicious cakes, buns and treats.

As audio visual systems grow more sophisticated and interconnected, they also become increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats in the modern workplace. Are you aware of the potential cybersecurity risks and how to successfully negate them?

Audio visual sustainability is experiencing a significant shift. From digital signage and conference room equipment to broadcast studios and home entertainment systems, energy efficiency is fast becoming a top priority for manufacturers, integrators, and end-users alike.

Artificial Intelligence is now a practical tool being embedded into AV systems, enhancing functionality, efficiency, and user experience across sectors - from corporate environments and education to hospitality and live events. Learn more about it here.
