Innovation and start-up zones tend to be useful destinations at tech trade shows, because they usually have a few companies that are showing things that push new ideas and take different approaches to solutions. […]
I am virtually attending the Society for Information Display’s annual display-nerd festival – DisplayWeek. The live show was done in by COVID-19, but lives on as a virtual show.

This is a very impressive temporary LED installation in the International Arrivals Hall of Dubai’s vast airport – the busiest on the planet. There are 10 vertical LED sculptures wrapped around support columns that line a main walkway.
