The official attendance figures for ISE 2015, which took place last week (10-12 Feb) at the RAI in Amsterdam have been announced. In what was Europe’s largest ever pro-AV exhibition 59,350 registered attendees came to the show, which represents an increase of 8,347 registered attendees (16.4%) on ISE 2014.
"The volume of attendance confirmed ISE’s position as the destination of choice for anyone involved in professional AV and systems integration,†said Mike Blackman, ISE MD.
David Labuskes, Executive Director and CEO, InfoComm International commented: "Everyone at InfoComm International is so proud to be associated with another record-breaking ISE show. Our Guest Membership scheme, which made its debut at this year’s event, attracted almost 1,200 sign-ups, and we are looking forward to giving these ISE attendees a taste of InfoComm membership that extends beyond the education and hospitality they received in Amsterdam to the delivery of a range of post-show benefits."
Don Gilpin, Executive Director & COO, CEDIA, was also upbeat: "ISE has become the most important platform for the CEDIA channel outside of North America and the 2015 event was the best edition yet," he said. "Manufacturers and integrators from all over world that concentrate on electronic systems for the home tell me that ISE is now an annual event that simply cannot be missed."
