20 years at ISE

Wow, can you believe it’s been 20 years since ISE started! We’ve been there every year, and let us tell you, it’s always a blast! Catching up with colleagues, both new and old, and diving into discussions about both business and life—it’s what makes the experience so enriching. Plus, it’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with our PSNI global alliance partners and chat about the state of the industry worldwide.

This year, there was a real buzz around the evolution of networked devices, signalling a maturing industry landscape. And let’s talk about those displays—innovations were everywhere, from Samsung’s incredible Micro LED CoG display to the emergence improved of E-Paper solutions (a very exciting and sustainable solution!). As for the stands we visited, they were nothing short of impressive. From Samsung and Barco to Shure, Bi-amp and Avocor, we saw some incredible tech on display. We also caught up with our friends at Logitech and joined in on a round table discussion about developing sustainable systems through firmware updates—a game-changer for streamlining efficiency and boosting productivity.

Participating in PSNI workshops and training, like the EMEA PVP Design Summit and Service Workshop, was both informative and enjoyable. PSNI provides us with invaluable networking opportunities that enable us to leverage the global alliance network and deliver top-notch systems and support to our clients.

One thing that really stood out was the number of stand partners updating and releasing products certified for Microsoft Teams Rooms. Having these certifications and standards across manufacturers is incredibly exciting—it allows us to streamline our system designs and tailor products to our clients’ needs, ultimately improving the overall system experience for both clients and end-users.
