Here’s a list of the known networking events around next week’s #dse2014…
- The best networking event by far is (and always has been [1]) the Preset Group DSE Mixer – traditionally held on the evening before the show proper starts (this year that is Tuesday February 11). This event is the place where everyone wants to be – tickets are always limited and this year sold out once again in less than 24 hours.
- DSE have their very own VIP pre-show reception. This year it’s being held at the miX restaurant atop THEhotel at Mandalay Bay. Invite only
- BroadSign’s Client Summit [2] (now in its second year) takes place on February 11 – whilst this effectively competes with DSE’s own Pre-Show educational day (and our own Thought Leadership Summit Video Walls Unplugged) [3] the summit last year was incredibly well attended and there is certainly room for this sort of event during the week.
- An invite only CXO Dinner takes place on the Tuesday evening at the Aureole Las Vegas [4]. This is exactly the sort of high level networking that needs to go on during the week.
- Not a gathering as such but one of the things we always look forward to after the week itself is the mighty Phil Cohen’s Cohen on Content [5] Interviews. The big guy is usually in action on the show floor interviewing various industry bigwigs (and a fair amount of wannabees).
- The FWi Happy Hour is hosted by SYNNEX Corporation, we quote “FWi invites you and your team to unwind, network and mingle over a drink at the end of the day on Wednesday”. It’s 3:30 to 5pm Booth 1309 and you need to register your interest here [6]
- The UCView Mixer will be hosted by Guy Avital and Michele Cohen at the LAGO Suite at the Palazzo Hotel, 19:00 PST on Wednesday, February 12, 2014. You are invited to join them [7] for food, drinks, and open discussions on digital signage.
- peerless-AV have an invite only Partner Event [8] on the Wednesday evening – ‘Join the After Party‘ at 1 OAK Mirage Nightclub 9pm to 12am
