International. Live Design International, LDI, the preeminent event for the live event industry, and Digital Signage Experience, DSE, the preeminent event for the digital signage industry, are set to open their doors on the same show floor from November 2-5 in Las Vegas.
"We are thrilled to have LDI and DSE in the same location by 2023 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, while maintaining each community's brand and identity across two distinct sections of West Hall," said Marian Sandberg, vice president and market leader at Questex, organizer of the events.
"Attendees will have access to both exhibition floors, giving them the opportunity to see exhibitors in so many areas of visual and audio technologies, from high-end displays to advanced moving lights, rigging and truss systems, cloud-based content solutions, stages, media servers, atmospheric effects, whatever."
Both programs also plan to leverage the strength and market penetration of Questex's other brands. The company's adjacent assets include shows, conferences and media relevant to hospitality, healthcare, education, travel and more.
"The future of display solutions, entertainment production technology and experiential events intersect here, with hundreds of exhibitors and more than 14,000 attendees expected," Sandberg said. "LDI brings together the entire entertainment, design and technology community with ultra-modern equipment manufacturers and distributors and professional training from world-renowned industry leaders. DSE understands the rapidly changing ecosystem of digital and interactive displays from buyers and exhibitors in advertising, brand marketing, experience design, entertainment, hospitality and retail, as well as IT systems integrators, manufacturers and more. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
The synergy created by the closer location of the two exhibition spaces will encourage increased cross-traffic and more networking opportunities, keynote presentations and technology for both markets, while specific programming and events will continue to serve each exhibit.
