Digital Signage Expo's tenth anniversary show 'shattered' previous attendance records, organisers have revealed. Despite a snow storm shutting many airports in the USA, attendance was up 1.4 percent on 2012, with international visitors making the trip from 77 countries, more than ever before.
Event producer Exponation also announced a new home for DSE from 2014, which will be co-located with the Interactive Technology Expo and Digital Content Show at Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Las Vegas on February 11th – 13th next year.
This year's show featured 211 exhibitors – an increase of 22 percent since 2012 – and Exponation adds that nearly 80 percent of the floorspace for the 2014 show has already been reserved. A nine percent increase in conference participation was also recorded, and the organiser says it will 'continue to offer opportunities for professional development' at next year's show, with a programme of pre- and post-show educational sessions, 'targeted Industry Vertical Discussion Groups' and free workshops.
