ISE 2014 Dubbed Most Successful Ever

This year's Integrated Systems Europe show in Amsterdam has been dubbed a success by organisers, after attracting more than 50,000 registered attendees for the first time in its history.
Taking place at the Amsterdam RAI from 4–6 February, Integrated Systems Europe saw a total of 51,003 attendees and 952 exhibitors.
Key events included an enlarged Professional Development programme, including off-floor training sessions hosted by ISE co-owners CEDIA and InfoComm International, with both associations also contributing seminars to the event’s new on-floor Theatres dedicated to Residential and Commercial Solutions.
The sessions attracted over 2,400 people, with InfoComm experiencing an almost three-fold increase in its education traffic over 2013 after offering free session vouchers to every 2014 attendee.
ISE 2014’s pre-show events programme included the third edition of the Smart Building Conference, the all-new Investor Showcase and Audio Forum, and an Opening Keynote Address, 'Kick-Starting the Market for Building Automation', by Cisco’s Dr Dirk Schlesinger. These events attracted a further 1,000 attendees.
Mike Blackman, Managing Director, Integrated Systems Events, says: "Our big theme this year was content, and we believe we have delivered on our promise to enhance our event – and attract more attendees – by offering a combination of technical training, market intelligence, real-world case studies and networking opportunities that is unmatched by any comparable event in Europe."
"By all standards of measurement, ISE 2014 was extraordinarily successful," said David Labuskes, CTS, RCDD, Executive Director and CEO, InfoComm International.
"It was a great way to kick off the industry calendar, and a spectacular way to begin InfoComm International’s 75th year. What started out as a small show in Geneva 11 years ago has blossomed into a truly thriving event. That first ISE was an important early step in our association’s journey beyond its US borders, but would be largely unrecognisable to this year’s ISE attendees."
The next Integrated Systems Europe will take place at the Amsterdam RAI from 10–12 February 2015.
