The CEDIA Product Hall of Fame inductees are also selected by
a panel of home technology professional judges, and this
distinction is awarded to products that have transformed the
CEDIA industry.
As part of the plans to increase attendance in 2018, Emerald
Expositions will leverage its strong design and construction
brands to encourage designers, architects, and builders in the
residential and hospitality fields to attend CEDIA 2018. "The
integrator-designer relationship needs to be a partnership, and we
want to help educate builders and remodelers on the critical
importance of including the integrator from the onset of a project,"
remarked Brian Pagel, SVP of Emerald Expositions and show
director of CEDIA 2018. "CEDIA 2017 saw a significant increase
in attendance, and Emerald Expositions is excited to work in
tandem with the CEDIA association and a select group of industry
experts to develop plans for [exciting] new initiatives to benefit
both the exhibitors and attendees for CEDIA 2018." Please visit
