ADI launched Control4 NEXT, a three-day education and training conference created for Control4 Certified Technicians. ADI said the event will aim to provide attendees with advanced technical education, hands-on product training, and direct access to the teams shaping the future of Control4.

The event is set to take place Oct. 20-22 in San Antonio, Texas. The company said Control4 NEXT reflects ADI’s commitment to innovation, technical excellence and customer success. The event is intended to become an annual gathering for the professional community and aims to bring together advanced training, direct collaboration with engineering and product teams and advanced previews of future innovations across the Control4 platform.

ADI said that since Control4 became part of ADI, the company has worked to strengthen the ecosystem through investments in platform innovation, including the X4 Operating System, Lux Lighting, Vibrant Lighting, and T5 In-Wall Touchscreens and other innovations. ADI said it has also expanded recurring revenue opportunities through Control4 Connect and Assist, enhanced education through its Control4 Certified Technician program, invested in certification and showroom initiatives and broadened interoperability across the connected home ecosystem.

“The strength of the Control4 ecosystem has always come from the expertise of our authorized dealers, and our commitment to their success has never been stronger,” said Allie Copeland, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at ADI. “As technology continues to transform the way people live and interact with their homes, we see a tremendous opportunity ahead for our customers. Control4 Next reflects our commitment to helping our customers stay at the forefront of technology, build strong businesses, and create exceptional experiences for their customers.”
