InfoComm Asia 2026: Powering the Future of Pro AV in Asia

BANGKOK, THAILAND – April 30, 2026 – As the Asia-Pacific region solidifies its position as the global engine for Professional Audiovisual (Pro AV) market growth, InfoComm Asia is set to return to Bangkok from July 15-17, 2026. Now in its sixth edition, the event will once again transform the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) into the epicenter of Pro AV innovation, business, and networking for the entire technology solutions ecosystem.

This announcement comes at a critical time for the industry. With the APAC Pro AV market forecast to surge past US$134 billion by 2027, driven by rapid digital transformation across all sectors, the need for a central meeting point has never been greater. InfoComm Asia has firmly established itself as this nexus, a "super connector" event that unites manufacturers, integrators, consultants, and end-users from across the value chain.

The Super Connector's Expanding Influence

The event's reputation as a vital industry platform is backed by a consistent trajectory of impressive growth. Previous editions have seen record-breaking attendance, with a significant increase in international visitors from across Southeast Asia, China, Japan, and Korea, confirming its status as a truly pan-Asian gathering. Exhibitors have noted the unique regional flavor and the high quality of engagement. "InfoComm Asia is the place to be! If you are in the AV industry, you must be here, and you cannot afford to miss it," noted Anand Hariharan, Director of Solutions Engineer from Cisco, after a past event. He highlighted the presence of "consultants and integrators" as well as "end-user customers who came with ready budgets."

This diverse and high-value audience is a key draw. The 2026 show expects to host over 200 global brands, from audio giants like Yamaha, SHURE, and Audio Technica to visual technology leaders such as COLORLIGHT, LUMENS, and Fabulux. Networking and integration stalwarts including NETGEAR and Extron will also be present, alongside a growing contingent of new participants like Hemona from India and Transtech from China. This diverse exhibitor floor provides attendees a comprehensive overview of the market's latest offerings.

The international draw is a significant factor in the show's success. Marthesh Nagendra, Senior Director for Enterprise APAC at Netgear, previously commented on the wide reach, stating, "We see a good influx of visitors... We met with buyers from the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and even those from China." This ability to connect businesses with partners and customers across a vast and fragmented region is what solidifies InfoComm Asia's role as an indispensable annual fixture.

Showcasing the Future of Integrated Experiences

Beyond networking and deal-making, InfoComm Asia serves as a crucial stage for technological innovation. The event is a launchpad for hundreds of new products and a window into the trends shaping the next decade of integrated experiences. While specific 2026 debuts remain under wraps, past shows provide a clear indication of the cutting-edge solutions attendees can expect to see.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to be a dominant theme, with its integration into AV systems promising to revolutionize everything from automated camera tracking in conference rooms to data-driven content delivery in digital signage. Advanced display technologies are another area of rapid evolution. Previous editions have featured groundbreaking products like ultra-thin LED screens that can be installed on glass and the world's first backward automatic folding all-in-one LED displays, demonstrating the industry's push towards more flexible, high-impact visual solutions.

The event also serves as the annual flagship gathering for AVIXA, the global Audiovisual and Integrated Experience Association, in Asia. This partnership enriches the experience with a comprehensive program of AVIXA-led activities, including industry roundtables, experiential technology tours, and the AVIXA Xchange Live platform. These sessions provide deep dives into emerging technologies and offer a forum for thought leadership and professional development, ensuring attendees leave not just with new contacts, but with new knowledge and insights. As Linda Lim, CEO & Co-Founder, Studio X Beyond Thailand, remarked, "Things are evolving at bullet-train speed — that's why events like InfoComm Asia are so important. They help us keep up, connect, and stay ahead."

Powering Smart Workplaces and Education

A key focus of InfoComm Asia is the practical application of Pro AV technology in transforming key vertical markets. The future of work and learning, in particular, is being heavily influenced by the solutions showcased at the event. From unified communication (UC) platforms that enable seamless hybrid collaboration to interactive displays and immersive audio systems that create engaging learning environments, the technology on display directly addresses the evolving needs of modern enterprises and educational institutions.

Underscoring this focus, a special sneak peek event will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on May 15, 2026. The "InfoComm Asia Pro AV Connect: Malaysia" roadshow is themed "Rearchitecting Smart Workplace and Education Environments for the Next Decade." The agenda features keynotes on designing intelligent ecosystems and a panel discussion on the role of AI and data in the future of collaboration and learning. This preview event, featuring market leaders like Crestron, offers a taste of the in-depth discussions and forward-thinking solutions that will be explored more fully at the main event in Bangkok.

The demand for these solutions is palpable among attendees. "We came to check new products and new technologies that we can incorporate to our system and bring back to our projects and distribution in the Philippines," said Jeffrey Beloro, AV Technical Manager from AV Beyond Innovations, The Philippines. His search for advanced technologies like ultra-thin LEDs for glass installation highlights how end-users are actively seeking next-generation tools to solve real-world challenges. Similarly, Tuan Khoi Nguyen, Founder and Director of AK Technologies in Vietnam, found the show highly productive, stating, "I was lucky to find at least seven matching products, and that has already exceeded my expectations."

Asia's Pro AV Market: A Global Bellwether

The significance of InfoComm Asia extends beyond the regional market; it is increasingly seen as a global bellwether for the entire integrated experiences industry. With the APAC region projected to lead global Pro AV market growth with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) significantly outpacing other regions, the trends, demands, and innovations showcased in Bangkok often signal wider global shifts.

The event provides a unique platform for international brands to understand and cater to the diverse needs of the Asian market, while also allowing Asian innovators to showcase their solutions to a global audience. This cross-pollination of ideas and technologies accelerates industry-wide progress. Past attendees have noted the distinct regional character of the show. "InfoComm Asia has a unique regional flavor you don't get elsewhere," observed Mitera Tsuyoshi, Director at Cerevo Inc. "It's a great place to reconnect with familiar faces and explore what's ahead for the Pro AV industry."

This dynamic environment, where global giants meet regional powerhouses and emerging startups, creates a fertile ground for new partnerships and business opportunities. By bringing together the entire Pro AV ecosystem under one roof, the event not only reflects the health of the Asian market but actively fuels its upward trajectory, empowering participants to discover new opportunities and accelerate growth across a multitude of industries. As online pre-registration for the July event opens, the industry is once again looking to Bangkok to see what the future holds.
