- Velocity Audio Visual Services was honored with a Torch Award for business ethics at the 10th annual San Diego Better Business Bureau Torch Awards on Dec. 4, 2007 at the Town & Country Resort and Hotel.
- "Receiving this honor has great meaning to Velocity because we strive to bring integrity and ethics to the businesses and non-profits we serve in San Diego and nationwide," said Dave Howell, managing partner for Velocity. It was the first time ever an audio visual company has been honored with Torch Award recognition from the San Diego Better Business Bureau.
- Velocity received finalist recognition in the category of 1 to 4 employees and was one of only 20 companies to be recognized for marketplace ethics in 2007. The entry process for the Torch Awards is extensive and winners and finalists were selected by a panel of independent judges.
- Established in 1999 when managing partners Toby Russell and Dave Howell merged their businesses. Velocity AVS specializes in special event production for corporate and non-profit organizations nationwide, and now offers the newest high-definition production services.
