(UPDATED June 23, 2014 with PHOTO) June 20, 2014 – InfoComm International, an audiovisual (AV) trade association, presented FSR president Jan Sandri (in photo) with the Women in AV Award earlier this week at InfoComm 2014 in Las Vegas, Nev.

The Women in AV Award was created to raise awareness of the growing role of female professionals in the male-dominated field of audiovisual technology, said organizers, adding that “the award winners are in the upper echelon of AV professionals and symbolize the strength of entrepreneurship and excellence in developing tomorrow’s AV talent”.

“I am deeply honoured to be recognized by InfoComm, an organization of which I am proud to be a member,” Sandri said. “I am lucky to be surrounded by so many wonderfully talented, smart and generous women, and men, in the AV industry who prove everyday that everyone is capable of helping others to effect change, whether it be in business or community.”

With over 33 years experience in the AV industry, Sandri is also a founding member of FSR and has helped grow the business from three people to a staff of over 100.
