invidis and ISE are looking for the best digital signage projects in GCC and MENA. The award competition honors innovative digital signage projects in four categories:
- Retail
- Transportation & Infrastructure
- Digital out of Home (DooH)
- Special Award
The awards focuses on innovative and creative projects which offer a unique retail experience at the POS, innovative and efficient information at the POI or are just special. We’re looking for digital signage projects (integration of professional displays, touch screens projection or LED is a must) which have an impact for customers as well as clients. A sustainable strategy should be implemented. We’re not looking for “hang & bang” projects or necessarily the largest video wall but for smart and integrated concepts.
The Digital Signage Award ceremony will take place on 16 November 2015 at the Digital Signage Summit in Dubai. Winning projects as well as runners up will be presented to the industry at the conference, to the MENA public at various occasions and presented in a dedicated showcase at Integrated Systems Europe 2016 – the world’s largest digital signage show in Amsterdam.
