ISE is renowned for its dynamic blend of cutting-edge technology, thought-provoking keynote sessions, and stunning AV installations. Nestled in the heart of Barcelona's vibrant tech landscape, this event offers visitors the chance to not only explore the latest advancements on the show floor but also witness how these innovations are applied in real-world scenarios through ISE’s popular Tech Tours.

Uniting professionals from across the globe, ISE serves as a critical meeting point for the AV and systems integration sectors. The 2025 edition is set to surpass expectations, with unmatched networking opportunities – ranging from formal industry events to more casual gatherings – creating a perfect environment for forging new partnerships and strengthening existing ones. Across seven themed Tech Zones, attendees will be able to dive into areas like Audio, AV Broadcast, Digital Signage & DOOH, Lighting & Staging, Residential & Smart Building, Multi-Technology, and Unified Communications & Education Technology.

ISE 2024 attracted more than 1,400 exhibitors and saw 73,891 unique attendees from 162 countries. An impressive roster of 363 expert speakers delivered invaluable insights, and ISE 2025 is projected to exceed these figures, offering even more expansive content and participation.

The ISE 2025 content programme has been expanded to cover a broader range of topics that reflect current industry megatrends, including AI, Audio, Cybersecurity, Retail, Sustainability, and more.
