Photos From 2018 Digital Signage Awards February 28, 2018 by Dave Haynes The Digital Signage Awards folks sent along a series of photos from the ceremony held three weeks ago in Amsterdam. The event looked quite nice, and I liked the glass trophy-thingies, which could double as anchors or deadly weapons. The things were solid. Host Matthew Davies congratulating Joe’ Lloyd from NanoLumens. Jason Cremins from Signagelive …
ISE’s Final 2018 Tally Logs Almost 81,000 Attendees February 15, 2018 by Dave Haynes Last week’s Integrated Systems Europe attracted almost almost 81,000 people, a massive foot traffic bump and one that spread across four days. The number of registered visitors to the Amsterdam show reached 80,923, an increase of 10.3% on the 2017 edition.

Video: Me Talking To Some English Guy At ISE 2018 February 9, 2018 by Dave Haynes For, I think, the 47th year in a row, Adrian from DailyDOOH interviewed industry luminaries – and me – for a video series at the NEC booth, this time above ISE’s teeming hordes in a 2nd level cafe/meeting area that had very nice people bringing much needed, nicely made coffees to weary attendees.

ISE 2018: Day 3 Impressions: SOC Screens Are Rolling Out In Volume February 9, 2018 by Dave Haynes Finally spent some substantial time in Hall 8 at Integrated Systems Europe, where many of the digital signage vendors are located.

I chatted with Signagelive, which has a nice integration set up with …
ISE 2018 Day Two Impressions – Crazy Busy, I’m Late February 8, 2018 by Dave Haynes Tuesday was reported as seeing record crowds, and I swear it was busier Wednesday. Have not seen the numbers but it definitely didn’t seem to drop off. I know there are numerous people just coming in starting today, as the ISE crowds are supposed to slow after the first two days. Had a better look …
ISE 2018 Day One Impressions – So Many People, So Many LED Vendors February 7, 2018 by Dave Haynes I saw a tweet from someone this morning that suggested Day 1 of ISE pulled in 32,000 people, and it felt like that in most of the halls. Crazy busy. Jammed walkways. I don’t understand the idiots who stop in the middle of hyper-crowded main walkways to have a group chat. Get out of the …

LEDs, OLEDs, Stroopwafels And Vedett Extra Whites – Headed To ISE 2018 February 2, 2018 by Dave Haynes I’m headed back to Amsterdam this weekend and will be at Integrated Systems Europe all next week, so posts may be spotty. I have a few booth tours set up but mostly I avoid that sort of thing, as appointments very quickly chew up all of my time. I get more out of just wandering …
