A full-day pre-show program at #des2016 on Tuesday, March 15, has been specifically designed for Professional AV/IT System Integrators
Produced by Kirsten Nelson, System Contractor News editor-at-large, the Connected Screen Conference will run from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., focusing on building better AV integration business models. The program will feature top industry experts tackling the digital signage issues that are vital to today’s AV integrator.
“Digital signage is evolving into a more complex and design-centric form of communication and branding,” says Nelson. “New models are going beyond one-dimensional data presentation and marketing pitches to a more immersive experience. Brand perception is a moving target, and digital signage customers are looking for the best way to reach audiences.”
The Connected Screen Conference was created to bring the AV design and installation community together with leading digital signage innovators and end-users who are demanding the latest and greatest in this market segment. Those who attend the day-long series of AV integration sessions will walk away with practical business perspectives on how these new trends could boost their business.
The day will include five modules, a ‘Lunch and Learn’, plus two breakout sessions:
