EVENTS & ANNOUNCEMENTS
Our LG CI team had the privilege of attending the HTSA Spring Conference this March in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where we showcased the LG OLED evo G4 along with lifestyle products. Our G Series’ picture improvements and One Wall Design garnered nothing but positive feedback, as did the included stand for 55" and 65" G4 models. Our integrators and principals continue to express excitement that everything viewers need is built right into our TVs—no external box needed. When it comes to lifestyle products, the StanByME GO impressed members not only for its capabilities, but also its versatility: customers can take it to job sites and meeting rooms, able to display diagrams, layouts, and more. HTSA was also the perfect time to meet with members at the Vendor Expo and during 1:1 meetings where we explained the benefits of our Pinnacle Program and everything else LG offers custom integrators.
Another highlight from last month was ProSource in Las Vegas, drawing roughly 500 attendees from the industry. LG focused on the key features of our 2024 OLED and QNED lineups, AI processors, and other standout products. Dealers loved our Zero Connect Box for its reliability and the My View Monitor products for potential in secondary rooms. The 27" and 32" are even IP controllable, and attendees remarked on how LG delivers options for all spaces in the home. ProSource was also a fantastic opportunity to showcase our Lifestyle products, which received lots of attention—especially the portability of our StanByME models. A big thank-you to Gregg Lee, who provided illuminating training to the Expert Warehouse sales team on our 2024 offerings. We also demonstrated Dynamic Tone Mapping and 720p versus 4K resolution. All in all, our trainings were a hit, and we look forward to hosting more informational sessions at CEDIA in September.
