With Integrated Systems Europe out of the way, industry eyes are turning now to Digital Signage Expo, which is in late March in Las Vegas.

16:9: ISE 2019 – Final Thoughts and Impressions

Back at World HQ after a week in Amsterdam – and for the 2nd time in four ISE visits dealing with a whopper of a cold no doubt picked up when amongst 80,000 people. I have not seen formal attendance numbers, but assume foot traffic would be similar to or exceed 2018. It didn’t SEEM as busy, except for Wednesday, but the actual numbers will tell the story. […]

16:9: ISE 2019 Impressions From Day 2: Waves Of People, Drinks, Awards

This will be terse, as Wednesday was a full day at ISE 2019 – meetings, podcast interviews, booth tours, a mixer and an awards dinner. Crowd – It seemed slow-ish for a Tuesday but Wednesday was nuts … I’ve been subwaying it to the RAI but a breakfast in central made it necessary to Uber to the venue. Eventually, I got out and walked. […]

Day 1 is done and dusted at Integrated Systems Europe in Amsterdam, and I am happily back at my hotel, dodging extracurricular bad behavior in the hopes of actually-maybe getting a decent sleep.

16:9 Podcast – From ESLs to Avatars At NRF 2019

This is a special edition of the podcast, which I am pretty much whacking together myself, in the wake of running around the NRF show last week in New York. I had my handy little Tascam recorder with me, so I grabbed some quick interviews with several companies I bumped into, with the idea of stitching them together in a round-up. These are not the biggest companies. […]
