A women in leadership summit organiser needed their two-day event at Sofitel Darling Harbour to run smoothly. With keynote speakers on stage and up to 500 delegates in the room, the priority was clear visuals, reliable audio, and a setup that would make every speaker feel confident the moment they stepped up to the lectern.
The organiser didn't want to be managing AV on the day. They needed a team who would handle the technical side end to end, so they could stay focused on their speakers and their guests.
IHAV set up dual 12-foot projection screens with short-throw 4000-lumen projectors positioned to give every seat in the banquet-room layout a clear sightline to the content. A Roland V-160HD handled vision switching, routing signals cleanly between sources and to confidence monitors at the lectern so speakers always knew exactly what was on screen behind them.
Audio was managed through an Allen and Heath Qu16 mixer with QSC K10.2 speakers on stands, giving the room even coverage without relying on the venue's in-house system. The Shure MX412 gooseneck microphone at the lectern meant every word from the keynote speakers landed clearly. The crew ran both days without a technical failure, and when the event wrapped the client was happy and the speakers were grateful.
