Thought Leader: Brad Hintze, Executive Vice President of Global Marketing at Crestron

The watchwords for Crestron in 2025 are content, collaboration, and control. We’re focused on creating best-in-class solutions for each of those categories in every vertical we service, from enterprise to education, home to hospitality, and more.

When it comes to content, we’ve been expanding our line of DM NVX AV-over-IP solutions to provide every client with crystal-clear audio and video, near-zero latency, and USB-C connectivity to support the most popular formats. We’re also adding and refining products in our AirMedia wireless presentation and conferencing systems so that BYOD/BYOM situations are nearly automatic for the user.

To facilitate collaboration, we’re focused on creating technology to make the most out of hybrid meetings in every space of an organization—most notably, those high-impact spaces where the biggest decisions are made. To that end, we’re refining our family of products that leverage intelligent video technology, including our line of 1 Beyond cameras and Automate VX multi-camera speaker solutions, which rely on Visual AI to really make for a natural meeting experience for both in-person and remote attendees. Our Crestron Flex videoconferencing products remain immensely popular as well.

And control is, of course, at the heart of what we do; control solutions are what put Crestron on the map half a century ago. These products have evolved to the point where one-touch or even no-touch control is something that our clients should expect: Walk into the room that you’ve scheduled for a meeting and every part of that space is ready—from lighting to shading to content presentation and even climate.

There’s much more, of course, but that’s a fair cross-section of the products that support our core philosophy—creating seamless, intuitive experiences and simplifying technology for the way we live, work, and learn.
