🔁 ICYMI: Wine, wireless sharing, and signage on wheels. 🍷📺🛞 Can signage double as a presentation system? We have opinions. Loud ones. 🎙️ www.avsuperfriends.com/episodes/on-... #AVSF #avtweeps #edtech #higheredav

Can digital signage be more than just digital signage? And can it be hosed down periodically? Yes!
