ISE 2020

The Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2020 opens on 11-14th February, in RAI, Amsterdam. It has been an unusual beginning of the year due to the coronavirus outbreak in China and its impact on the schedules of numerous show visitors and exhibitors coming from China and other parts of the world. Furthermore, Storm Ciara battered the northern Europe with hurricane-force winds and heavy rains, halting flights and trains and producing heaving seas that closed down ports. Concerns about the ISE being bustling as usual compounded before people gathered in Amsterdam for the last year to attend the show. However, the Show has proven itself an unshakable cornerstone for the AV industry since the first day, powered by a large group of professionals with non-stopping enthusiasm in the industry.
