AVIXA’s Research Head Sean Wargo On COVID-19’s Impact On Pro AV Industry

April 8, 2020 by Dave Haynes

AVIXA, the trade association for the pro AV industry, has started doing a weekly impact survey with members in North America and internationally – as a way of understanding how hard the pandemic is hitting business, and the collective point of view on what is happening, and will happen.

As you might imagine, things don’t look so hot. Sales are down, and revenues with them. Jobs are being furloughed or ended. And even businesses that would, in theory, be rocking – like video conferencing – are struggling with supply chain issues.

But it’s not all doom and gloom, and even in rough times, good things can happen.

Sean Wargo, AVIXA’s Senior Director of Market Intelligence, runs the impact surveys. He was kind enough to take some time the other day to walk through what he is hearing, and also what AVIXA is doing with and for its members.
