October 12, 2009
Digital Signage Expo (DSE), Interactive Technology Expo (ITE), and Out-of-Home Network Show (OOHNS) have opened registration for all three co-located shows, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
DSE says this year's seventh international conference has been expanded to present the world's largest educational conference ever staged to help encourage and support the industry's growth. The conference consists of 40 industry peer-led seminars (expanded from 30 in 2009), 37 "Lunch & Learn Roundtable" industry-specific discussions and 20 on-floor workshops, featuring more than 160 speakers to run Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 24-25, 2010.
The 40 seminars will be arranged topiclaly into eight tracks: two for communications-based digital out-of-home deployments; two for advertising-based digital out-of-home deployments (one each for attendees who need an introduction to these topics and the other for attendees who need more advanced, in-depth information); one track specifically designed for brand managers/marketers and advertising agency professionals; a Content University track; a technology track; and a track that will repeat the conference's most popular seminars, allowing attendees to see more of what they want and to avoid session scheduling conflicts.
