Thanks to the 15 judges working with Worship Tech Director site editor Andres Caamano (each of whom currently works as part of a church tech team), a total of 49 entrants in the 2017 New Product Awards were recently reviewed. In all, the judges offered their input on products in the following categories: Audio, Video, Lighting, Media and Communications, Building Materials, and Building Systems. When all the scores were tabulated, there were some rather tight results, on which companies and which products will be honored onsite at WFX at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center on Wednesday.
To take a closer look at some of those entries, take a minute to read up on some of the latest lighting and media and communication products:
