Students at Southern California’s University of LaVerne have turned a problem into a small business – developing a low-cost digital signage solution for the campus library and in the process realizing the same set-up could be offered to area businesses. […]
I’d got to this just for the food, and craft beer, but it’s a bit of a drive (like 14 hours) … plus I couldn’t drive home after the craft beer. Oh well. The Digital Signage Federation is running a mixer April 6th at the Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World store in Concord, NC, which is just up the road from the Lowe’s Motor Speedway (NASCAR track). […]
Ok, back at World HQ after DSE and a mini-vacation three hours northeast of Vegas ay Zion National Park. One word review: Amazing. I arranged for a local guy to run around at the mixer last week and grab shots of the venue and people. […]
The 2016 version of Digital Signage Expo is in the can, with the show already announcing next year will be the last week of March, with the trade hall open on the 29th and 30th. The numbers haven’t been pushed out by the show, but I can’t see it being logged as bigger than last year. By 2 PM on Thursday, the hall was not at all busy. […]
We had about 300 people over for drinks last night at the Hard Rock Cafe, I’m guessing 70% of the 400-plus who were registered for the annual Preset Group Mixer. It was a great night that I think went off quite well, save a few registrations that went missing. That’s why I bring a label printer with me. […]
Guest poster Irfan Khan submitted a piece that went up this morning about the general sorts of things you should expect to see on the trade show floor at Digital Signage Expo next week in Las Vegas. […]
We are a little more than week out from Digital Signage Expo and, on Tuesday evening, the biggest social event of the show – the annual Preset Group Mixer. The event does not come off without the support of sponsors. Anyone who has organized a networking event will confirm that between the bar and food tabs, insurance, DJs, printing and on and on, the costs add up. […]
Installation & Service Technology, Inc., Booth 2817 Why do people going to DSE need to put your company on their Must See list of booths? Attendees will be able to meet and chat with members of the team responsible for several of the largest digital signage deployments in the industry. […]
The name badges for the sold-out Preset Mixer have arrived, and next we’ll just slap on all the names and companies labels my little Dymo printer has spat out. In past years, we’ve handed out drink tickets, which has turned into a bit of a problem controlling how many tickets were out there and arbitrating whether people got their drink tickets. […]
The Digital Signage Federation has revived a pre-DSE golf tournament in Las Vegas, the day before the trade show floor opens and in the hours before the Preset Group Mixer. The DSF’s golf outing is at the Painted Desert Golf Club, with an 11:15 am shotgun start. […]
Integrated Systems Europe is a trade show I’ve regularly thought about attending, but have never done – much of that owing to it being on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. But … I’d heard enough about ISE that I finally went ahead and did it, and will be there next week for the show. […]
I started this blog 10 years ago today. Thank you readers and subscribers. The numbers have really climbed in the past two years as the industry has started to mature and settle in. […]
It’s six weeks tomorrow to the annual Preset Group DSE Mixer, but as of 9:01 this morning the general admission tickets were sold out. We will be hosting as many as 400 people at the annual networking event, on the eve of the trade show floor opening in Las Vegas. If you did not bag a ticket, all is not lost. […]
Ticketing is now good to go for the 2016 Preset Group DSE Mixer in Las Vegas, March 15th at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Las Vegas Strip. It’s the 8th annual version of this puppy, and every year we get a little better at it. […]
Digital Signage Expo is now nine or 10 weeks out, and work has quietly been going on in planning the annual Preset Group Mixer – the unofficial kickoff party to DSE week in Las Vegas. I got my first “Hey Dave, can you get us in …” e-mail today, so I figured I’d knock out an update on where we are at for the 2016 version. […]
