DSS Europe 2021 confirms in-person event in Munich
- Details
The theme of DSS Europe 2021 is The New Agenda. The rules of digital signage have changed, and the pandemic has had a marked effect on how displays are deployed within retail, DOOH, transport and other sectors. DSS Europe will cover the significant technological innovations that are having a positive effect, will showcase the development of sustainable solutions (eliminating waste and re-using resources) and will reveal market insights and investor news.
In a new development for 2021, the Innovation Stage, sponsored by Red Bull, will host sessions from a range of start-ups and innovators ‘with inspiring and unconventional solutions for digital signage’.
Conference chair Florian Rotberg, managing director of invidis consulting, comments: “Digital Signage Summit Europe comes after a challenging time, yet also at a vibrant time for innovation in our industry. It is so important to get back to live and in-person events, and we are delighted to be able to provide such a stimulating agenda, covering important topics such as sustainability and innovation, and with a line-up of exhibiting companies who are all eager to meet up with customers. I’m gratified at the response we’ve had so far and am very much looking forward to DSS Europe.”
Running parallel to the conference, an exhibition takes place on both days with digital signage companies showcasing their technologies and solutions: including displays, touch solutions, signage accessories, software and hardware.
Stefanie Corinth, senior vice president of sales EMEA at Sharp NEC Display Solutions Europe GmbH comments: “It’s great to finally be able to meet up in person for industry networking, to discuss the latest technology updates and to exchange experiences after what has been a very different year. We look forward to re-connecting ‘live’ with the signage industry again, at DSS-E in Munich and, of course, in an adjusted format given the current pandemic situation.”
Current confirmed exhibitors for DSS Europe are: Advertima, Bütema, Concept, iiyama, Intuiface, LG Electronics, Lindy, Littlebit, Matrox, Nexmosphere, NoviSign, Sharp NEC Display Solutions, Telelogos, Vertiseit, Vestel.
Mike Blackman, managing director of Integrated Systems Events, notes, “For this year’s event, visitors are in safe hands; Florian and invidis consulting know the industry better than anyone, and delegates can look forward to two days packed with the inspiration that will drive the new developments in this rapidly changing market.”
Conference sessions, panel discussions and keynote addresses will cover ‘best practice in understanding and activating the customer, the technological response to this time of hybrid events and working arrangements and look to discover what the role of digital signage is in the creation of smart spaces in retail, offices, factories, or cities’.
