Description

On this episode of The Integration Conversation, James Bliss is joined by CEDIA Director of Research Ryan Bardach and Eric Voyer of the Farnsworth Group to unpack the new UK Professional Market Analysis and what it means for your business.

What you'll hear:

• Why the market size dropped on paper, and what changed in how installers and integrators are defined
• Why two-thirds of UK integrators expect growth, and whether that optimism holds up
• Lighting as the #1 opportunity, in the UK and the US
• Why finding good people is a bigger problem than finding work
• How integrators and their customers are adopting AI
• What brands integrators are actually selling across 23 categories
• Where the UK and US diverge on firm size, cost pressures, and economic outlook

The full UK Professional Market Analysis is available now on the CEDIA store (free for members).
