Integrated Systems Europe began life in 2004, with the first edition of the show being held in Geneva, Switzerland. It hosted 120 exhibitors and attracted 3,500 visitors. Most importantly, it laid the foundation for consecutive years of unprecedented growth for the annual show.
Fast forward 15 years, and ISE 2019 welcomed more than 1,300 exhibitors and over 81,000 visitors to the RAI Amsterdam.
ISE 2020 – which will be the final edition held in Amsterdam – is confidently expected to be the biggest in the show’s history with more attendees and exhibitors than ever before. One of the factors enabling this will be the construction of a permanent extension to Hall 5.
ISE is now recognised as the largest AV and systems integration show in the world. It is the European destination for an industry that is truly global.
As the show has grown, it has naturally changed and evolved. What started out as a temporary shop window for 120 companies is now a multi-faceted, four-day event that features a huge show floor, comprehensive education and professional development programmes, conferences, world class speakers and a multitude of affiliated and partner events.
ISE has helped formulate the systems integration industry and increased collaborative approaches across a wide range of complementary technologies.
