21 reasons why you should attend the NEC Solutions Showcase 2016
1.Now in its eighth year, the NEC Showcase has truly earned its place as ‘the must-attend AV and digital signage event of the year’, firmly established within the industry calendar. This unique event offers visitors an opportunity to be informed and inspired as together we shape the future of our industry.
2. NEC Display Solutions is the ONLY manufacturer able to offer ALL the major Display technologies; we call them the Three Ls: LCD, LED & Laser. This unique advantage allows NEC to take an unbiased customer-centric approach, recommending the perfect-fit solution to virtually any customer installation scenario. At the Showcase, visitors can evaluate the pros and cons of each technology and consider the benefits of alternative technology solutions.
3. New Fine Pitch innovations make LED a real contender for indoor signage offering perfect readability in bright environments with modular flexibility in the creation of large screen solutions. See the range of pitch sizes for indoor and outdoor applications in the LED Gallery.
