2026 Vision: Walking Into the Storm Like the Bison
2026 is shaping up to be one of the most historic and fast-paced years in recent memory. I recently heard an old piece of wisdom about how animals handle a storm: most animals run away or find a safe place to ride it out, only to end up running with the storm, prolonging their time in the rain.
But the Bison is different. The Bison turns and charges directly into the storm, walking through the chaos to reach the sunlight on the other side faster.
As we look at the year ahead, we are taking the Bison approach. We are walking head-on into the "storm" of a busy, transformative year:
National Milestones: Between the United States’ 250th Birthday in July, and President Trump’s birthday in June, this a year of Patriotism. We are charging ahead to meet the surge in civic and commemorative projects.
The 2026 World Cup: We are prepping to be ready for the high-pressure deadlines of World Cup events and retail build-outs.
The AI Revolution: While others might fear the "chaos" of new tech, we are embracing the massive leaps AI is making in our industry to work smarter, efficiently, and more precisely.
Safety in the Elements: Even as we maintain this "head-on" mentality, we respect the weather. Currently, winter conditions mean exterior installs are moving at a slower, more deliberate pace. We certainly hope that everyone is ready for the huge winter storm coming this week.
Whether the year brings clear skies or challenging storms, Visual Installations is your boots-on-the-ground partner, moving forward with purpose. We look forward to working with all of you to make 2026 the best year yet!
