Both organizations have a focus on advancing associations by providing the ability to connect, communicate and effectively engage with the people who matter most, which in turn supports their growth and prosperity.

The PSAV partnership allows AMCI to work with the industry's leading event technology provider to uncover insights and opportunities that will continue to evolve the total meeting experience to the more than 1,800 AMCI-managed associations globally.

"PSAV will have the opportunity to broaden our client base and provide AMCI members and their clients with unparalleled products and services; AMCI members will benefit from PSAV's thought leadership as we also provide educational content at AMCI conferences and through online learning and webinars. PSAV is excited at the opportunity to assist the AMCI membership moving forward."
