The 14' by 6.5' Prysm videowall serves as the centerpiece of the academy's new state-of-the-art auditorium hailed as the most cutting-edge in Scandinavia.
Prysm LPD will deliver a powerful communication experience for the auditorium's 150-person audience serving key constituents including business, research, government and international partners.

Renowned integrator, Informationsteknik Stockholm, selected Prysm's solution for its unmatched image quality and outstanding eco-friendliness.
"We were briefed by our client that the AV technology brought in must be an innovator within its field to fit the ethos of the IVA and the superbly redesigned Wallenberg Auditorium," said Patrik Camp, managing director of Informationsteknik Stockholm. "Prysm's LPD videowall fits perfectly as its low power consumption, impressive uniformity and ultra-wide viewing angles were key value points for the large auditorium. We are proud to showcase this technology in the Wallenberg Auditorium and have been very pleased with the support and engineering backup Prysm provides."
