Step Inside The Pitch
Where live sports, broadcast, and digital experience play as one.
Step into a connected live-event environment where technology doesn’t just support the fan experience, it becomes part of the action.
The Pitch is an immersive, sports-inspired activation showing how AV, broadcast production, digital displays, control, audio, lighting, content, and audience participation come together to create a modern fan experience. Built around the excitement of the World Cup, The Pitch invites attendees to move through a live-event journey: enter through a dynamic stadium-style arrival, watch the match in a premium viewing environment, explore an immersive stadium visualization, participate in branded content moments, step into a strategy-driven Draft Room, hear from industry voices on the Keynote Stage, and see how it all comes together inside a professional production environment.
This is where sports technology moves beyond screens and sound systems. It becomes the full experience: the energy, the content, the participation, the operations, and the moments fans remember.
The Pitch demonstrates a simple but powerful idea: one connected technology ecosystem can serve many audiences, many moments, and many experiences.

Beyond the Install: Aligning AV Strategy, Systems, and Experience for Long-Term Impact
Yitzy Shapiro, COO, Blue Square X
Chanan Averbuch, CXO, Blue Square X
Stephen Glancey, DIGITAL Practice Leader, Diversified
Successful AV environments are not created through isolated decisions or measured by installation alone.

This panel will explore how owners, operators, consultants, architects, IT teams, designers, and integrators can work together earlier in the process to reduce deployment risk, avoid costly rework, and create environments that deliver measurable value over time. The discussion will focus on the planning decisions, operational strategies, and experience considerations that influence not only how systems are installed, but how they are adopted, managed, supported, and evaluated after launch.
Whether designing a workplace, briefing center, retail environment, sports venue, broadcast studio, immersive experience, or corporate lobby, the conversation will examine how organizations can move beyond fragmented AV deployments toward integrated environments built for usability, engagement, operational efficiency, and long-term performance.
