KIOSK EUROPE EXPO 2009 and DIGITAL SIGNAGE EXPO 2009

The concept of two trade shows under one roof proves successful two years in a row

Ten weeks before the start of KIOSK EUROPE EXPO 2009 and DIGITAL SIGNAGE EXPO 2009, more than 150 international companies have already confirmed that they will be exhibiting at the world’s largest trade show for self-service solutions and Europe’s largest trade show for digital signage. After last year’s success, both events will again be taking place under one roof. Halls 1 and 2 at Messe Essen will open their doors to industry professionals from 5 to 7 May 2009.

KIOSK EUROPE EXPO 2009 and DIGITAL SIGNAGE EXPO 2009 offer visitors the opportunity to find out more about both self-service solutions and digital signage during a single trade show visit. At this cross-sectoral meeting of experts, exhibitors show how retailers, banks, tourism and transportation companies, as well as users from other industries, can communicate cost-effectively with their customers about current content.

“The consumer with his need for information and orientation and his demand for transactions is always at the centre of the various applications”, explains Jens Schindler, Managing Director of the organiser, hf media & events. “Digital signage and self-service thus offer tremendous potential for value creation for anyone wishing to communicate with a wide range of customers. It is possible to meet the needs of different target groups and even to address customers individually.”

Both suppliers of complete solutions and niche suppliers demonstrate their latest solutions and products in the field of self-service and digital signage. Experts in strategic communication and marketing introduce their concepts for successfully integrating the projects into the user’s communication mix. Specialists in monitors, content management and network technology demonstrate innovative solutions. Suppliers of touch sensors, ticket printers and applications for payment processes in cash, by card, mobile phone or simply by fingerprint are expected for the technical realisation of the interaction at the kiosk solutions.

Sponsors of the two trade shows are Friendlyway, Hughes, Impuls TV, Provisio, Star Micronics and Werkstation. The list of high-profile exhibitors includes 42 media group, Deutsche Telekom, Epson, Hyundai, IBM, Narcomm, NEC, Oki, Scala, Seen Media, Sharp, Videro and Wincor Nixdorf.

The events will be held on 5, 6, 7 May 2009 in Messe Essen, Essen, Germany, and entrance is free for pre-registered visitors. To pre-register please visit www.kioskeurope-expo.com or www.digitalsignageexpo.eu.
