Nothing ruins a concert faster than the screens going black mid-chorus. And someone definitely got it on video. CTI Live Events builds backup signal paths into the show, so one failure stays backstage where it belongs. Nobody buys a ticket to watch someone troubleshoot.

Most donor walls are finished the day they're installed. This one isn't. CTI built Meharry Medical College an interactive digital donor wall for its $500M Campaign 150, touchscreen navigation, recognition that grows with every new gift. 👉 Check it out. cti.com/case-studies/meharry…

Designing for worship is different. The system has to perform, but it also has to respect the room and the purpose of the service. 🙏 CTI designs audio, video, and control as one experience: clear speech, consistent coverage, controls staff and volunteers can trust every Sunday.

The forecast said golf. The scorecards said maybe stick to AV. 😄⛳ Either way, our annual CTI golf outing was a great chance to get the team together, spend some time outside, and catch up beyond the usual workday. Already looking forward to doing it again next year!

Waldo isn't very hard to find in the office this week. Dog Days at CTI is exactly what it sounds like, leashes on the desk, tails under the table, and a very good boy working the hallway like it's a runway. Here's to the dogs that make CTI feel more like home.

We updated the audio at Subaru Park: speaker arrays over every seat, coverage through the concourses, the gates, the team store, and yes, even the restrooms. You will hear the goal call from the cheesesteak line. This is a promise.

Twelve dashboards fighting for attention is just twelve dashboards. We build control rooms where the critical information finds the operator. Nobody should be hunting. Very expensive wallpaper sold separately.

Live events run on one person calmly designing the system, one person calmly programming it, and one person backstage having the least calm moment of their week making sure the cue hits. You will never know which one. That's the whole trick. #ctirocks #LiveEvents

If "the slides are working" is the whole production plan, there is no production plan. Your employees notice when the coffee brand changes. They will notice the audio. Presenters present. The booth handles the rest. That's the job. #ctirocks #LiveEvents

CTI is bringing home two 2026 Commercial Integrator Integration Awards, with @xenergynuclear winning Best Mission-Critical Project and @NYSE winning Best Broadcast AV Project. Proud of our team, and thank you to @commintegrator for the recognition! 👏

Replacing classroom technology only when it dies isn’t a refresh strategy. That’s grief with a purchase order. Every room ages differently. Know what is coming. Fix the right rooms first. Budget for the rest. Plan the refresh before it becomes a rescue.

Good work starts with people who actually want to get better at it. Not "attended a webinar once" better. Actually better. At CTI, that means showing up for the team and each other. Different positions, same standard. Take a look. 👉 cti.com/careers #ctirocks

The best seat in the house should be every seat in the house. Great view up front. Everyone else squinting at a screen the size of a stamp, hoping the captions caught the important part? Respectfully, that's not up to our standards. cti.com/portfolio/live-event… #ctirocks

What does donor recognition look like when a plaque isn’t enough? CTI helped Meharry Medical College turn donor recognition into an interactive digital experience featuring donor stories, multimedia content, and touchscreen navigation. 👉 Check it out: cti.com/case-studies/meharry…

The first thing we look at in a control room isn't the video wall. It's the people running it. We saw that firsthand supporting X-energy's systems, keeping critical infrastructure running while new technology integrated around it. #MissionCritical #ctirocks

One office has Teams Rooms. The office next door has Zoom. Every meeting starts with "wait, how do we join on this one?" That's not a technology problem. That's a "nobody agreed on a standard" problem. Anyway. We fixed it. #ctirocks #Collaboration #AVTweeps

There’s nothing quite like the bond between siblings, they know how to make you laugh, push your buttons, and still be there when it counts. 😄 Here’s to all the brothers and sisters celebrating that bond today. ✨ Happy Raksha Bandhan from CTI! #ctirocks #RakshaBandhan
