What’s In Store for Week 5 of ‘GatesAir Connect’

0

With GatesAir’s Virtual Events platform, the company is making up for the loss of a 2020 NAB Show expo booth and personal interaction with an all-digital booth designed to let it feature new product updates, topical presentations, round tables with special guests, and even “virtual booth meetings.”


GatesAir is now in Week 5, and here’s what can be expected from upcoming webinars that include a special “Pre-NAB Express” event on May 12:
