NEXXT is not a booth stop at InfoComm 2026. It is a partner helping the AV community create space for practical AI-era transformation. In the HETMA booth conversation, Byron Tarry, Founder & Chief Transformation Officer of NEXXT, talked about the NEXXT partnership with HETMA, eXplore ISE, The SPRINT with AVIXA, and the need to bring both leaders and front-line teams into the work. For higher ed AV/IT teams, the value is in moving past AI talk and into shared experimentation, practical innovation methods, and campus voices helping shape what comes next.
