Cautions
Friendly reminder: this research provides examples of what was shared with us at the event, not an evaluation, validation, or recommendation of the given technology.
After almost 30,000 steps, including some 500 minutes of standing, 2 Vegas loop rides, 61 video segments including 2 live streams and 140 minutes of content, our coverage of AAPEX (Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo) and SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association Show) closes. AAPEX and SEMA consistently attract over 161,000 to Las Vegas including over 70,000 buyers and 3300 media and 2400 exhibiting countries form 140 countries. The event leverages 1.2 million net square feet of exhibit space and additional 1 million square feet outside of the LVCC in neighbouring areas including the Westgate.
Featuring over 1500 vehicles in booths and throughout the convention center and over 3,000 new products, it is THE place to be in those in the automotive sector. The combined events feature live presentations, interactive demos, training, education, and networking within the global automotive industry. That means the event featured a lot of virtual garage space.
AAPEX leveraged the full Venetian Expo lower hall, the entire upper hall including leveraging rooms for meetings and sessions. The usual Venetian eateries were available including the café, the food marketplace and the bistro! In addition, AAPEX always features the Truck Stop downstairs and a Beer Garden near the bridge to Caesars Forum. Admittedly, it is the only time I noticed the movable temporary eateries named something reflecting the nature of the conference. AAPEX also formally leverages all of Caesars Forum for exhibits.
For getting around, those wishing to zip from AAPEX over to SEMA, Caesars Forum has a Monorail station one can leverage. Buses also ran between all AAPEX and SEMA locations. Within SEMA, the West Hall and North Hall are connected via a connecting corridor that hosted the legendary SEMA Art Walk. One can also take the Vegas Loop from South Hall, Central, or West Halls to get to each other or hotels connected.
SEMA spanned the entirety of the Las Vegas Convention Center sans the new Central Hall lobby still under construction; TBW Advisors LLC was able to get a sneak speak of its upcoming grandeur. It is valuable to note that many vendors had multiple booths at both events. While in 2019 the event wasn’t sure what a technologist and data expert would do at AAPEX and SEMA, this year, just as last year featured more and more technology for us to dig into especially in North Hall. North Hall was dedicated to first-time exhibitors, business services and mobile electronics and technology. We were able to capture the Healthy eatery in North Hall while we were there. South Hall lower featured the tire expo as well as wheels and accessories. South Hall upper featured collision repair and refinishing both equipment and tools to execute. Central Hall featured racing, performance, powersports, utility vehicles, hot rod alley and the entire restoration marketplace. West Hall features all the speciality recreating, trucks, SUVs, & off-roads speciality equipment including accessories. As is customary, we also caught the food available in West Hall. SEMA is also very well known for the SEMA SHOW outdoor exhibition of cars – enjoy our walkabout.
We once again live streamed from on site. On Tuesday from AAPEX requesting those attending to find me to answer Questions 1-3, and Wednesday from SEMA SHOW to requesting assistance on your favorite videos for my segment on the November 8 broadcast edition of Computer Talk Radio.
While at AAPEX SEMA 2025, we conducted research for three additional forthcoming Whisper Reports for our clients. The playlists are unlisted but available and will eventually fill in with the video version of the report so you may wish to bookmark these playlists.
Readers and viewers wishing to experience the entire event are encouraged to view the Conference Whispers: AAPEX SEMA Playlist in its entirety. The playlist will be cited in the end screen, description, and as a pinned comment of the video edition.
The video edition will conclude with a montage of responses to Question 4 — “What’s the best part about attending AAPEX and SEMA live in Vegas?” — capturing the energy and moments that made the event unforgettable.

Key Takeaways
Creators connect directly with consumers, offering scalable, intimate interactions.
Businesses must support creators with tools, partnerships, and infrastructure.
Creators rival traditional media in quality, speed, and production scale.
The creator economy is reshaping media and consumer expectations.
We took the most frequently asked and most urgent technology questions straight to the Technologists gathering at NAB Show 2025 held in Las Vegas, Nevada. This Whisper Report addresses the question regarding how can we leverage the creator economy to drive business growth? As Latakoo’s Jade Kurian shared, “every single person out there is a content creator right and they all want to be able to take their content in put it one place and do the editing do the transfers do the transcoding.” With all these creators, a shift is coming. As Strada’s Michael Cioni observed, “the creator economy is actually the economy we should be we’re following them now we should emulate.” Figure 1 depicts the four levers of the Creator Economy that we will now dive into.
Creators connect directly with consumers, offering scalable, intimate interactions. As DeepDub’s Oz Krakowski noted, “I think that in a world of creator economy where independent creators have a direct reach to the consumers ignoring that part of the business is a big mistake.” TightRope Dana Healy argued, “we still need to tie these new technologies to stories and creators are really good at telling stories.” Not only are they great at telling stories, but as LucidLink’s Gergana Berman reported, “we really think that the voices of individual creators and independent creators are really the trusted voices out there.” This trusted, storytelling capabilities with a direct reach results in, as Oz Krakowski observed, “unique product that very unique IP where they can reach different types of audiences and the ability to interact to have that level of interaction that is sometimes very intimate with their audiences is extremely scalable.” In conclusion per Tightrope’s Dana Healy, “the creator economy is still very valuable in the organic reach.”
Businesses must support creators with tools, partnerships, and infrastructure. There is a critical question all media vendors should be asking themselves, according to Axle.ai’s Sam Bogoch. “How can we enable them to make better content and how can we help them repurpose and retarget that content better.” Latakoo’s Jade Kurian noted, “creator economy to drive business growth for us it’s really about giving creators on one-stop shopping.” Catering to the creator economy is valuable for as Strada’s Michael Cioni proposed, “they are effectively bigger than professional media and entertainment and so what we need to understand is that consumer tastes have changed and what we have been protecting through our history and traditions for a long time is no longer as relevant.” Finally, and perhaps most critical, Cinnafilm’s Dom Jackson contended, “other piece is that we have to adjust to the way that those people do business we have to make sure that our cost models match their revenue models so that we can make a compelling case that we are tools that fit with their businesses.”
Creators rival traditional media in quality, speed, and production scale. Ross’s David Green emphasized, “The truth of the matter is some of these creators are just doing incredible things and their production quality is sometimes better than those of us who think that we’re the you know the you know the enterprise class content professionals. And when you when you look at some of the biggest content creators in the world they’re truly innovating in terms of how they’re creating this amazing content doing it flexibly doing it fast doing it on the run doing it efficiently.” David was not alone in sharing his enthusiasm for the creator economies scale. Per Dell’s Tom Burns, “size of the creator economy dwarfs what we have thought of for the last 100 years as episodic and feature production pipelines.”
The creator economy is reshaping media and consumer expectations. DeepDub’s Oz Krakowski declares companies must collaborate with content creators, “companies and businesses have to do this in order to cannot basically cannot ignore it.” And why would you ignore it for as Axle.ai’s Sam Bogoch asserted, “the creator economy is the biggest growth area in media right now and not just the official creator economy but also things like user generated content for marketing purposes.” And there is a very good reason creator content is growing. Per Strada’s Michael Cioni, “we have to get over that and meet them where they are because the next generation of consumers 10 and 20 years from now will not be going to see movies in theaters they’re not going to watch traditional broadcast television.”

Abstract
This report explores how telemedicine is evolving beyond convenience to deliver deeper, more personalized care. From AI-powered test result interpretation to seamless appointment coordination and continuity across care settings, experts at HIMSS25 reveal how digital tools are reshaping the patient journey. Discover how telemedicine can close access gaps, enhance understanding, and support long-term health outcomes—if systems are designed with the full patient lifecycle in mind.
Target Audience Titles:
Chief Information Officer, Chief Medical Officer, Chief Data Officer, Chief Digital Officer, Chief Innovation Officer, Chief Patient Officer
Clinical Informatics Specialists, Telehealth program manager, Health IT Architect, Clinical Data Analyst, Biomedical Engineer, AI/ML Engineer (Health Focus), Patient Engagement Strategists, Virtual Care Coordinator
Key Takeaways
AI-enhanced telemedicine can streamline appointment booking, interpret test results, and personalize care recommendations—improving speed, clarity, and access for patients.
Continuity of care is the next frontier—integrating telemedicine across acute, post-acute, and home health settings to support the full patient journey.
Access equity improves when telemedicine includes specialists and reaches underserved populations, addressing socioeconomic and geographic barriers.
Patient understanding is amplified when generative AI explains results and next steps in context, reducing confusion and improving engagement.
We took the most frequently asked and most urgent technology questions straight to the health systems technology experts gathering at the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) 2025 Global Health Conference and Exhibition or HIMSS25 for short. This Whisper Report addresses the question regarding how can telemedicine be optimized to improve patient care? Figure 1 depicts two patient care optimizations one can expects from telemedicine.
The first benefit many expect to experience with telemedicine is the patient experience. For example, when getting test results, AI can be leveraged for the benefit of the patient to find a doctor. As Aisera’s Daniel Caravajal suggest, “I get my test results it can recommend me doctor that’s specific on that area right and it can book the appointment right it can coordinate the calendars and basically made that experience a lot faster a lot seamless and easier to kind of interact with.” Caravajal further suggests AI can help the patient understand the results. “let’s say you get your test results. We can analyze them and give you suggestions that is the unique part about a genetic AI is not only delivering a unique use case but it’s also understanding the situation. It’s understanding the intent and making further suggestions.” Valuable to note that it is always best to confirm any such information with your actual practitioner! MinttiHealth’s Xiaoqian Zou suggests telemedicine technology can, “give everyone access to the easy health care solution and service.”
A critical part of the patient experience that also affects the medical care is that of continuity of care.
As Alexander Group’s Tray Chamberlin advised, “what we think is probably the next evolution in tele medicine is that continuity of care where you’re really thinking about a patient across the entire life cycle be it acute to Post Acute to maybe even home health and integrating that tele medicine it more so that the date and Records can still communicate and we understand the holistic patient Journey.” The significant benefit of telemedicine as Chamberlin further observed, “we’re also meeting the patient where they are and so you know the inclusion of specialists in telemedicine certainly just from a socioeconomic perspective getting access to the right populations that traditionally maybe don’t have access.” For additional background on the benefits and current state of telemedicine, see the Press Conference for OnMed from CES.

“Media companies now favor hybrid cloud workflows for flexibility, speed, and cost-efficiency. Open standards ensure interoperability, while strong security protects valuable IP. Experts stress aligning cloud use with business goals, maintaining control and visibility, and using cloud strategically—not universally—to optimize collaboration, performance, and infrastructure investment.”
Target Audience Titles:
Chief Technology Officer, Chief Digital Officer,
Chief Data Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Content Officer
VP Engineering, VP Media Technology, Dir Cloud Strategy, Dir Media Ops, Head of post production, Direct of IT Infrastructure
Cloud Solution Architects, Media System engineers, DevOps Engineer, Video Platform Engineer, Broadcast Engineer, Post Production Engineer, Media Workflow Specialist, Software Engineer, Storage and Archiving Engineer, SRE
Key Takeaways
Hybrid workflows balance cloud flexibility with on-prem performance and cost control.
Open standards ensure seamless integration across media tools and platforms.
Strong security protects media IP with access control and audit trails.
Cloud strategy should align with business goals, not just follow trends.
We took the most frequently asked and most urgent technology questions straight to the Technology experts gathering at NAB Show 2025 held in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Convention Center. This Whisper Report addresses the question regarding what are the best practices for integrating cloud technologies in media workflows?
Its been fascinating to watch the Media’s use of the cloud the last handful of years. As Axle.ai’s Sam Bogoch observed, “during covid people would just put things in the cloud willy-nilly because there was no reason to put it anywhere else. They didn’t go to their offices. There was no on premise. There was no concentration of work.” Furthermore, as Dell Technologies’ Tom Burns pointed out, “The promise of cloud was that you didn’t have to own or maintain infrastructure and that’s been awesome.”
Or as Ross’s David Green observed, “they don’t have to have a large upfront capital investment.” Thus when there was no concentration of workers or work, the lack of capital investment and no need for infrastructure maintenance was quite attractive. But its important to keep in mind as Ross’s David Green further explained, “cloud is just a technology – not a solution.” Thus, in the post-COVID world, Media has been rebalancing how as an industry it works with cloud.
Regardless of where you put your workload for what part of the media workflow, the technologies involved must work together. Latakoo’s Jade Kurian gave us a great example, “if I have one company that does transcription let’s say really really well but it’s no connected to my media workflow. Then if I start using that as an enterprise media company, then the problem is I’ve created something that slows down my team even though I’m trying to make it faster for them.” To prevent the slowdown from incompatible tools, Cinnafilm’s Dom Jackson suggested, “to make sure that all of these technologies are using somewhat standardized APIs and ontologies and so on to allow somewhat atomic solutions to be combined easily into larger workflows.” In other words as Magnify’s Ken Ruck summarized, “the best ways to be open and not be a closed system.” The goal, as summarized by Jade Kurian, “it is all about speed -speed from camera to that pane of glass that exists that somebody’s watching on the other end”
Regardless of where your solution executes or where the media resides, protecting that media is absolutely critical. As Eon Media’s Greg Morrow simply stated, “media companies are built on their intellectual property so protection of their IP is incredibly important.” As warned during our coverage of Conference Whispers: NAB Show 2025, just because a technology can share media, doesn’t mean it does so securely with an audit trail. Lucidlink’s Gergana Berman further cautioned, “a lot of providers out there might claim that they have a very secure solution, but you have to check for yourself.” If this is an area your team is concerned with, clients should book an inquiry before purchasing the technology. In 2025, it is also critical to check the terms and conditions of any AI technologies leveraged. As Gergana Berman further explained, “ make sure their terms and conditions are not saying they can use your media copyrighted media.” Or as the saying goes, don’t use free products for when something is free – you are the product. In this case the valuable IP is the product of the media company for which you are working.
Some solutions have built in capabilities to assist in protecting your intellectual property. Greg Morrow pointed out that Eon Media’s solution has, “three levels of watermarking that we produce So we have produce a visible watermark on the asset and an invisible watermark.” Leostream’s Karen Gondoly perhaps best summarized the totality of the need, “I need to have control of my data. I need to have control of who has access to it. I want to secure that data so I want to make sure that I’m authorizing users correctly. I want to make sure that I’m using zero trust principles when I’m providing access to people. I need visibility. I want to make sure I always know who has access to my data what they’re doing with it where they’re accessing it from.” In other words, I don’t just need to be able to control it, I need a full audit trail of the five w’s for my data. Who accessed, What was accessed, When accessed, Where accessed and Why accessed as depicted in Figure 1.
Today, most media companies have settled into hybrid architectures involving a combination of on premise and cloud technologies. Strada’s Michael Cioni best summarized, “no one can actually put everything in one cloud. There’s too many collaborators. There’s too many different clouds. There’s too many pros and cons to clouds and nobody has enough money to store everything there So I think the best practices for integrating cloud into your workflow is to actually look for alternative solutions that may not use the cloud in the traditional ways and figure out how to collaborate across clouds versus putting everything in one place.” So what should go where? One can observe, those with on-premise based solutions have different answers vs those with predominantly cloud based solutions. Ross’s David Green recommends, “to not start with I want to do cloud the key is to start with whydo I want to use cloud and then figure out who can help you solve those.”
SNS’s Alex Hlvarty cautions, “we can’t control internet outages or data breaches or things like that are mitigated by making sure that you keep your own assets on site in your possession but then utilizing cloud for its very clear benefits as far as making things available to people all over the world through one single portal.” Axle.ai’s Sam Bogoch also likes to keep things he is actively working on close. “on premise the things that you’re immediately working on because it does not make sense to keep asking for them politely from the cloud when you’re getting work done much faster on premise and meanwhile things like archive and backup clearly belong in the cloud.” From a capitalization perspective, Dell Technologies Tom Burn’s recommends an extension of a common metaphor. “let’s think of the old rocks pebbles sand metaphor where rocks are the fully capitalized on prem infrastructure that you need to keep 99.9% utilized and the pebbles are the project-based uses of compute and storage that aren’t part of your base commit and don’t hit your ybudget and the sand is the pure burstable joy that is the public hyperscalers. We’re looking at hybrid workflows that combine all three screening up.”
Once again, clients should schedule an inquiry to review your hybrid media architecture against your organizational priorities.
