No two businesses are the same. The same can be said of business locations. Each physical space has its own unique design, needs, and customer profile. Still, digital signage has found a way to penetrate industry after industry because of the diversity the technology can now offer. From banks to bakeries, there is a reason why so many varied companies are finding a use for the latest products in the Pro AV world.
“It’s not just a shiny object to put marketing and different promotions on. It’s all about grabbing the customer’s attention,” UPShow Co-Founder and CMO Matt Gibbs said.

Artificial intelligence is another way LED boards have gone from static to interactive. The continued development of interactive experiences will change the shopping experience for each individual customer.
“What AI is going to give us the ability to do is continually improve the content that is being delivered and how it’s being delivered,” George Franklin, Manager of Strategic Accounts for Navori said.
Digital Signage Expo 2019 was far more than a Pro AV show. Industries from retail to hospitality and banking are enhancing user experience and gathering the data necessary to improve business practices.
