Michael Blackman, managing director of Integrated Systems Events (ISE), has been confirmed as keynote speaker at the SAVe 2026 Global Conference, taking place October 13-14 at UCLA in Los Angeles. Founded in 2022, SAVe is a non-profit organisation that aims to advance sustainability in the AV industry.
Blackman will speak on the relationship between sustainability and innovation in the AV industry. SAVe became ISE’s official sustainability partner, and has attended ISE for four years as of ISE 2026.
Christina De Bono, founder and president of SAVe, said: “As an industry leader who oversees the world’s largest AV technology showcase, he is uniquely well-positioned to inform and inspire not just our conference participants, but the industry as a whole.”
Blackman added: “At ISE, we see sustainability not as a separate initiative, but as a responsibility that must be embedded across the entire AV ecosystem.”
Further details on the conference agenda, speakers and sponsors are to be announced. The theme of this year’s event is Lead the Change.
