Technology can completely transform an event. If you’re planning a conference, you need to anticipate your attendees’ needs before they even arise—a unique challenge. But with the right team and the right tech behind you, you can host an event that will stay in your guests’ minds long after it’s over.
At Overland Park Convention Center, we offer the audiovisual resources you need to take your event to the next level. And to show how a conference with AV services stands above the rest, we’ll take a look at a past event and how they utilized our technology to create the best possible experience for their guests.
At OPCC, event planners benefit from:
- Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi
- In-house AV team with on-site support
- Dual/split screens and confidence monitors
- Wireless microphones and sound systems for large rooms
- Hybrid meeting and livestream capabilities
- Customizable stage and lighting setups
An Event That Matters With a Team That Cares
For several years, we’ve hosted the Kansas City Estate Planning Symposium at OPCC. This event brings together members of the estate planning field from all over the Midwest.
Estate planners see KCEPS as the go-to destination to discuss the industry, so we needed to provide conference attendees with resources to communicate and collaborate effectively.
Bringing Keynote Presentations to Life with AV Support
At OPCC, our AV team helped the KCEPS keynote speakers reach hundreds of in-person and remote attendees with ease. The event utilized our large-format projection screens, wireless microphones, and confidence monitors for smooth, uninterrupted presentations.
Our dual-screen setups ensured attendees could follow along from any seat, while livestream tools supported hybrid attendance.

Lori McCombs, the planner for the event, shared that the OPCC AV team “always utilizes the latest technology available,” making her presenters feel confident and prepared.
Why It Worked
The success of KCEPS at OPCC came down to three key factors:
- A dedicated AV team that supported setup, rehearsal, and day-of execution
- Advanced tech capabilities that allowed for professional-level presentations
- Flexible room layouts that adapted to speaker needs and audience sizes
And if you experience any unforeseen complications in the AV process, planners won’t need to deal with them on their own.
