KNOWLEDGE BUREAU CONFERENCE

A Pynx Pro Case Study

ABOUT THE KNOWLEDGE BUREAU CONFERENCE

In October of 2022, The Knowledge Bureau held their annual DAC Acuity Conference, bringing together leading tax, accounting, and financial professionals from across the nation. As a certified post-secondary institution, The Knowledge Bureau is committed to providing world-class financial education to improve wealth potential and secure financial futures. The Knowledge Bureau conference was held in Niagara Falls at the Niagara Falls Convention Centre.

To ensure a seamless event, they turned to Pynx Pro to provide all of their audio visual needs.

Pynx Pro was up for the challenge, bringing our expert knowledge and years of experience to the table. The conference required a wide range of audio and visual components, including microphones for speakers and panels, large screens for presentations, high-quality sound systems, stage lighting, and even DJ services for the banquet.

AUDIO

Pynx Pro knew that a well-designed sound system was essential for the conference’s success. We worked closely with The Knowledge Bureau to assess the venue’s unique acoustics and design a sound system that would deliver clear, crisp audio to every attendee, whether they were in the front row or the back of the room.

By strategically placing speakers throughout the conference space, Pynx Pro was able to ensure that everyone could hear every word of the presentations and discussions. Our audio technicians distributed the sound to another rooms in the venue to ensure that attendees in different areas could enjoy the event and its content without being physically present in the main room.

CHALLENGES

Ensuring compatibility between the presentations, videos, and graphics with our display systems was a challenge. Our on-site technicians worked diligently to make sure that media from multiple presenters was compatible with our system and displayed at the highest quality.

Acquiring media content from various sources, such as PowerPoint presentations and videos, can be challenging. Fortunately, our audio visual technicians have expertise in optimizing media content for large-scale presentations.

Ensuring that sound quality in adjacent rooms didn’t mix together and sounded excellent in both rooms was another challenge during the event.

Our dynamic lighting packages, sound distribution, and seamless presentation compatibility provided a unique audio visual experience. Pynx Pro worked closely with the Knowledge Bureau team to deliver a successful conference, showcasing our capabilities for any corporate event.
