Highlights of Technology Xposed 2019
10 Year anniversary
This year's Technology Xposed celebrated the tenth anniversary of the event and we decided to head back to where it all began, Ascot Racecourse. This event has become something to remember, year on year.
“The growth we’ve seen from Technology Xposed over the 10 years has been astounding, with the lever of vendors in attendance increasing year upon year. Technology Xposed now has its own identity, with customers and end-users adding dates to their diaries from the word ‘go!” – Jonathon Francis, Director – Sales and Marketing
Over the years, Technology Xposed has evolved into the leading technology event in the UK, growing and offering greater opportunities more each year.
UK Firsts
Samsung’s The Wall Pro
Every year at Technology Xposed Samsung have unpacked endless opportunities for both you and your customers. Previous years have been filled with live product demonstrations and detailed overviews of the latest products.
This year, we saw Samsung’s first UK showing of their NEW The Wall Pro - the future of LED, featuring next-generation micro-LED technology. The Wall Pro builds on the success of the market-leading IF Series, combining innovative LED HDR technology with cutting-edge micro size colour-enhancing LED chips for an incredibly true-to-life visual experience.
LG's Transparent OLED Signage
Attendees were mesmerised by this innovate technology. LG showcased, for the first time in the UK, their Transparent OLED Signage, the latest in addition to their OLED range. Their Transparent OLED signage illuminates spaces that once were hidden away behind the display, completely harmonizing with its surroundings.
LG’s OLED technology, featuring self-lighting pixels, maintains accurate and vivid colours even when the display becomes transparent. It brings content to life, making it difficult for people to separate content from the real objects placed behind the screen.
B-Tech UC Collaboration Solutions
On show for the first time, B-Tech’s previewed their UC Collaboration Trolley, with a slip down AV storage tray, designed to meet the demand of the popular collaboration market.
New Vendors
Sonos
Our new vendor, Sonos, joined us at Technology Xposed 2019 showcasing their wide range of products, suitable for different verticals. This new partnership went live at Technology Xposed 2019 and signals Sonos’ intentions to install Sonos’ premium In-Ceiling and In-Wall architectural speakers within commercial spaces – such as boutique retail, hotels, and corporate boardrooms.
Roomz
As exclusive UK and Ireland distributors of ROOMZ products, Midwich were pleased to announce their attendance at Technology Xposed 2019, for the first time. Roomz help end-users manage their meeting rooms using this fully wireless and elegant system.
ROOMZ demonstrated how easy their products are to install, connect to the wireless network, and control via the easy-to-use features such as “spontaneous booking” and “free the room”.
Panel Debate on The Future of Workplace Technology
At Technology Xposed we always like to look forward, to future trends and discuss how these are likely to reshape our business and work habits.
At this year’s event, we invited you all do join in the discussion with a panel debate on “The Future of Workplace Technologies”. The panel featured panellists from AV Magazine, Midwich, Google, Bloomberg and SMART, where they discussed:
- What have we learned so far about workspace design?
- Have we got it right?
- What specifics would we like to develop?
- Measurement of AV within the workplace (or lack of it)
- How much of an impact has AV made to our ‘changed’ working spaces?
- How is the workspace ‘vision’ developing?
- What impact will ‘new’ technologies make?
Midwich Group Presence
Technology Xposed 2019 marked the largest presence of the Midwich group. With our sister company PSCo representing many of their brands at the event; Holdan showcasing the latest technologies in production and a presence from Sound Technology, there had never been more of a Midwich presence at any event before.
