Chicago Hotel AV

Your event doesn’t have to be limited to the hotel’s in-house AV equipment provider.

When you work with us in a hotel venue, your event experience will be supported by a dedicated staff, professional equipment, and fantastic service you deserve, at a significant value. CTI. won’t add a high-percentage commission or service charge like an in-house AV provider, which keeps your technology costs down while bringing the best talent and equipment in the industry to your event.

If your event contract includes an AV clause, you still have options. Most contracts are negotiable, but if you are under an agreement, we will work to reduce or eliminate these fees, or we can cover those fees in order to bring you the best solutions.

Let us show you how we can save you money and give you top level service by requesting a quote for your event today.
