While 2020 affected the confidence of some in the video market, professionals remain optimistic going into 2021, with the increased adoption of new, more advanced technologies, and a potential end to the coronavirus pandemic in sight.

“We’re going to rock [2021] — this year is going to be great,” says Andrew Elvish, vice president of marketing, Genetec, Montreal. “I think a lot of the turbulence of 2020 is probably behind us. We still have a way to go before things are back to normal — likely more than a year to go. But I think the fact that we have vaccines, stimulus is being released — this is a great time.”
