The Wainhouse Research European Summit to be held in conjunction with ISE 2011 in Amsterdam

Wainhouse Research has partnered with Integrated Systems Europe to co-locate their annual European summit meeting in Amsterdam during the ISE 2011 Tradeshow

1 November 2010, Duxbury, Massachusetts -Wainhouse Research announces that its seventh annual European Summit will now take place at the Amsterdam RAI, Netherlands on January 31 and February 1, 2011, overlapping the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2011 tradeshow, one of the largest venues for audio visual technologies and solutions.

"This is a great fit between two leading venues," says Andrew W. Davis, Sr. partner at Wainhouse Research and the conference's program manager. "Making the audio and video experience as high quality as possible is a key ingredient to making electronic collaboration and remote meetings productive and to spurring market growth. Attendees at the Visual Communications Summit will be able to experience the products and services of hundreds of vendors on display just across the hall."

Wainhouse Research is well-known for its annual Collaboration Futures Summit meetings. They were traditionally held in Berlin, Germany, but this year's conference has been re-located to Amsterdam to afford attendees the benefit of two important meetings in a single location. The conference, now named the Visual Communications Summit, will focus on the drivers that are taking visual communications into the enterprise mainstream and how enterprises of all types can plan their collaboration future. The agenda will span videoconferencing and telepresence, unified communications, streaming and webcasting and the vast array of products and services available to large and small companies.

In addition, attendees to the WR Summit will receive a pass to the ISE 2011 tradeshow, the largest event for the professional AV and the electronic systems industry. Launched in 2004, it draws over 600 exhibitors and more than 28,000 attendees to its Amsterdam location.

"As ISE continues to grow, we are always looking for ways to enhance the appeal of the event and enable attendees to derive even more value from their stay in Amsterdam," comments Mike Blackman, Managing Director, Integrated Systems Events. "Visual communication and collaborative conferencing are some of the fastest-growing areas of our tradeshow floor, so we are delighted that Wainhouse Research has decided to locate the 2011 edition of its Visual Communications Summit at ISE. Wainhouse has a long-standing reputation for the quality of its conferences, and this Summit dovetails perfectly with our marketing to end users and AV integrators alike."
