How many times have you attended ISE, and in what capacity?
I’ve been attending ISE for many years prior to joining PlexusAV and this is the fourth year that PlexusAV has shown at ISE. Our best yet!
Overall, how was ISE 2026 for you?
ISE this year was simply amazing and something very special for all of us at PlexusAV. The conversations, the energy, the genuine interest from customers and partners demonstrates how valuable the show is for building real connections in our industry. When I look back over the last three years, it’s hard not to feel extremely proud of what we’ve achieved and especially proud of our amazing team who did an awesome job with the booth and sharing our AVoIP vision.
PlexusAV has gone from an ambitious idea to a company that’s coming of age. Not just with our products but in the way the market now engages with us. From my personal perspective, this felt like a turning point and IPMX is the main foundation of this. Seeing the standard now officially completed, with the first official certification finalised (four in total for us to date), was hugely rewarding. We’ve believed in open, standards-based AVoIP from day one, and to see that vision validated on the show floor, in real conversations with real customers, made all the effort worth it.
Numbers were up again, so how was footfall for you, and what about the quality of leads?
Not only was the show extremely busy but the quality of the leads that we achieved this year bears testament not only to the show team and organisation, but to our extensive preshow planning and all the press outreach. I thank all our team for the relentless work behind the scenes and also Re-Sauce for their efforts in helping us build brand visibility.
Did you engage with the ISE Daily, either by reading it or by contributing editorially or promotionally?
PlexusAV always looks to support the fantastic pro AV trade press and we consider the ISE Daily as critical to the awareness of our brand.
Did you nominate any of your products for the Best of Show awards? If not, do you have a particular reason?
As we had so many new products this year, we chose to focus more on physical demonstration on the booth, and we really drew in the crowds. However, the products should all be shipping by InfoComm in June and so we will definitely be entering for that show.
