Highlights of the Show Floor – Six Technology Zones

Taking advantage of the large, modern venue at the Gran Via, ISE’s new home provides ample space for a new approach to the show floor. Six Technology Zones, set out over five spacious halls, group together exhibitors in the major technology areas, making it simpler for delegates to plan their visit and find and compare the wide variety of solutions they need for their integration projects.

CEO of AUDAC said the company is looking forward to the return of in-person events at ISE in Barcelona: “As a family business, that personal touch is one of our greatest strengths and nothing beats catching up with each other over a cup of coffee or even a Belgian beer. In addition, the first full-scale edition of ISE is in Barcelona, so it is extra exciting to see the effect of the move to FIRA. ISE has helped us grow from a small start-up manufacturer into a leading player in the AV industry. It gave us access to clients & users that otherwise may have never heard from us. And by impressing the attendees we were able to further establish our brand while expanding our distributor network.”

In addition to the Audio Zone, ISE 2022 will feature the ISE Sound Xperience in partnership with the Eventos Filmax Cinema Gran Vía complex. The location is just a few meters away from the Gran Via and is a dedicated cinema complex of twelve uniquely configured listening rooms to showcase audio with depth, accuracy, and pinpoint clarity.

Digital Signage & DooH (Hall 6): Every year, the displays in this hall seem bigger, brighter, and more impressive than ever. Showcasing how state-of-the-art digital signage is used extensively for impactful messaging, advertising, and information delivery, this hall highlights display manufacturers as well as media players and software providers. NEW for 2022 is an additional open-air display area, next to Hall 6, where visitors will be able to see and hear solutions in an outdoor setting. Major brands see the opportunity of exhibiting at ISE as a key date in their calendars.
