“InfoComm 2017 put Control Envy on the map. Our primary goal this year was to find consulting partners -- and our biggest challenge ended up being having too many people gathered around our space at any given time. That’s a great problem to have, and speaks to the scale and reach of the show.”
Wes Hatchett, CEO, Control Envy
