Inside Crestron’s True Blue Evolution at InfoComm 2025

At InfoComm 2025, AVNation.TV’s Tim Albright chatted with Crestron’s Brad Hintze for an exclusive conversation that went beyond the technology. While InfoComm is known for unveiling the latest cutting-edge products, this interview focused on something even more impactful: community.

Brad Hintze shared insights into Crestron’s expanded True Blue initiative, a fresh evolution of what started years ago as Crestron’s well-known technical support brand. Today, True Blue represents much more: a deep, ongoing investment in training, customer success, and professional development across the AV industry.

“We realized True Blue was already much bigger than support,” said Hintze. “It’s our overt commitment to helping our partners and end-users succeed, grow, and build thriving careers.”

One of the highlights at Crestron’s booth was the launch of their online community platform, designed to foster peer-to-peer support, knowledge sharing, and global collaboration. Whether you’re a seasoned integrator, IT manager, or enterprise AV professional, True Blue now offers a space to connect with fellow experts, ask questions, and share solutions, all powered by the community’s collective expertise.

“The power of community-driven support is incredible,” Hintze emphasized. “There are far more trained professionals outside of Crestron than inside. People love what they do and want to help others succeed. We’re simply building the platform to make that happen.”

Beyond the forums and knowledge base, True Blue now encompasses Crestron Masters training, design services, and ongoing investments in AV professionals worldwide ensuring that anyone building their career on Crestron technologies has the tools, support, and network to thrive.
