  Introducing Conference Geeks!

  After 15 years of supporting conferences as part of Geeks and Gurus, we've grown to the point where we just had to break out on our own.

  Although our conference customers often call us the "A/V guys" we're much more than that. We've built a successful business supporting conferences because of our excellent understanding of IT and how it can impact conferences and meetings in terms of both technology and software. Conference Geeks has grown as a result of our excellent customer service and professional approach to all aspects of our conference services.

  If you need projectors, laptops, large screen displays, printers or anything else for your conference, please check us out at our new home on the web: http://conferencegeeks.com.
