Almo Professional A/V has opened registration for its E4 Philadelphia Expo, a “bonus” event that is part of the distributor's traveling E4 AV Tour for professional AV installers and integrators. The event is scheduled for August 15 at the Valley Forge Casino and Resort at the Radisson in King of Prussia, Pa., according to a company announcement.

The E4 Philadelphia Expo is designed to give attendees access to new products — many of which weree unveiled last month at InfoComm — from 35 of the industry's top digital signage and AV manufacturers. The free event will also include interactive product workshops, lunchtime roundtable discussions with industry experts, $5,000 in prizes and opportunities for networking, the company said.

"If you weren’t able to make it to InfoComm, or if you attended and weren't able to see everything on your agenda, then the E4 Philadelphia Expo is a fantastic way to catch up in a relaxed, inviting environment," Melody Craigmyle, vice president of marketing for Almo Professional A/V, said in the announcement. "This event gives our local-area partners uninterrupted time with the AV industry's top manufacturers, including our newest distribution partners, Listen Technologies and SecurityTronix. Attendees will also have access to our business development managers and new Content Creation Services group to discuss how to expand their projects and increase revenue."

Additionally, the Chief and Da-Lite AV Roadshow will be co-locating with E4 Philly Expo. The truck will showcase Chief's video wall, menu board and monitor mounts. Da-Lite's dry erase projection screen, ViewShare and multimedia lectern will also be on display.

Now in its fifth year, the E4 tour continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of AV resellers, integrators and consultants, Almo said in the announcement. The full tour continues in the fall with stops in Boston on October 3 and Washington, D.C., on October 17.

Some of the highlighted products being shown on the E4 Philadelphia Expo floor include (with descriptions from Almo):

• AMX DVX-2110. "A new lower-priced option for conference rooms that require fewer AV inputs/outputs while retaining all the key Enova features."
• Barco ClickShare CSM. "A smaller, entry-level version ClickShare for meeting rooms."
• BrightSign 4K Resolution Media Player. "A true 4K experience with 3840x2160 video at 60 frames per second via HDMI 2.0."
• C2G Rapid Run Optical. "The leanest, longest, fastest, strongest modular cabling system on the planet."
• Canon REALiS WUX400ST Projector. "Offers WUXGA resolution, 56:1 short throw ratio and extreme lens shift to deliver outstanding images and installation flexibility."
• Elo Ultra-Thin 32-Inch PCAP Touchscreen. "Provides fast, accurate, drift-free touch response in a slim, integrated design."
