Mike Blackman, Managing Director of Integrated Systems Events, explains: “ISE 2025 will be our most ambitious, inspiring and motivating edition to date. We’re looking forward to a host of new initiatives and features, an expanded and more easily accessible content programme that digs deep into the most significant megatrends shaping our industry, as well as the unveiling of Hall 8.1 accessed via the conveniently located North Access point. ISE is the global destination to get your connection restored with the industry – through virtually impossible experiences, unrivalled networking opportunities, and state-of-the-art technology, as well as even more chances for career and personal development.” 

 

Globally acclaimed digital analyst, author, and visionary Brian Solis will take to the stage on Tuesday 4 February to present the Opening Keynote. Known for his profound insights into the intersection of technology, business, and culture, Solis will share his vision on how the pro AV and systems integration industry can change and innovate through the latest developments in artificial intelligence (AI).

 

Exploring the future of tech development driven by AI, Solis will discuss the opportunities, and challenges for the pro AV and systems integration business and the role each of us plays in shaping the future. He will delve into why automation has become the standard rather than the objective, why augmentation is the key to setting businesses apart, and how leaders can cultivate the mindset needed to unlock the potential of becoming an AI-first, exponentially growing organisation. He will also address industry pain points such as inertia, business contact loss and outdated systems, providing solutions that restore connections and drive progress.

 

ISE brings the global AV and systems integration community together with unparalleled networking opportunities to connect with peers, industry leaders, and potential partners. From dedicated networking events to informal meetups, ISE is the place to make those invaluable connections that drive your business forward. With seven dedicated Tech Zones, including Digital Signage & DOOH, you’ll look beyond the boundaries of possibility for the future of displays.
