Universal AV Services proudly presents Connex 2026 – Bringing the future of workplace technology to Leeds

Universal AV Services is proud to present Connex 2026, the North of England’s leading workplace technology event, returning to Leeds to showcase the very latest in audio visual and collaboration solutions for modern working environments.

Taking place at the Marriott Hotel, Leeds on March 12th, Connex has long been a must-attend event for organisations looking to explore cutting-edge AV, collaboration tools and hybrid working technologies. The 2026 event promises to be bigger and better than ever, featuring hands-on demonstrations, expert talks and panel discussions designed to inspire smarter, more connected workplaces.

Modern workplaces are expected to do more than ever before. They are expected to inspire creativity, support collaboration, and work seamlessly for both in-person and remote teams. Connex 2026 tackles these challenges head-on, giving attendees the opportunity to experience professional displays, audio systems, unified communications platforms, control systems, digital signage and hybrid working tools, all under one roof.

The event will feature leading global manufacturers including Panasonic, Sony, Sennheiser, Barco and Yealink to name but a few, offering a rare opportunity to see, compare and test the latest technologies outside of London.

Beyond the technology showcase, Connex 2026 will explore the emerging trends shaping the modern workplace, and highlight how engaging with audio visual partners at the earliest stages of a project can help organisations plan smarter and make more informed decisions for future projects.

Connex is hosted by Universal AV Services, a Yorkshire-born and bred business with over 35 years’ experience delivering reliable, high-quality audio visual solutions to clients across the North of England. Trusted by organisations across the region, Universal AV Services is known for its technical expertise, practical approach and long-standing commitment to helping workplaces work better.

By hosting Connex in Leeds, Universal AV Services is bringing the latest workplace technology directly to the region, providing an accessible and sustainable alternative to travelling to London, saving businesses both time and cost while showcasing what the industry truly has to offer.

Connex 2026 is free to attend, and Universal AV Services is delighted to extend an open invitation to fellow Chamber members and regional businesses to join them for a day of innovation, insight and hands-on technology discovery.
