FAIRFAX, Va., January 28, 2026 – At ISE 2026, February 3-6 at the Fira de Barcelona Gran Via, attendees will have access to the show’s largest-ever content program, addressing pivotal topics in the pro AV industry, from AI to Sustainability to Broadcast AV. Six half-day Summits, produced as in the past three years by ISE’s co-owner AVIXA, will take deep dives into topics, and new this year, the Megatrends program will provide a flexible way to explore critical issues.

“ISE draws such a cross section of AV professionals from around the world – each person has different interests and goals for their show experience,” said Mike Blackman, Managing Director, Integrated Systems Events. “When developing the content program with AVIXA and our other partners, we use different formats and depth of topics to fit unique needs. For example, the Megatrends program was developed in response to attendees’ needs for succinct assessments on fast-changing trends, with the flexibility to step in and step out among their other activities at the show. Individual sessions are 20-40 minutes that highlight key developments in AI, Cybersecurity, Robotics, Smart Spaces, Sustainability, and TradeScape (regulatory and tariffs).” 

The €99 Megatrends ticket gives visitors access to the Megatrends auditorium on all days of the show. The sessions run throughout the show days and seats are first come, first served. In addition, ticket holders get two weeks’ access to the content post-event to revisit sessions.

Megatrend highlights include: Karsten Marijnissen from Incentro will present a masterclass in how to adopt agentic AI successfully into a business; Rich Mulholland from Missing Link will share how leaders can enable their teams and themselves to stand out by embracing emerging tech; and Marjolein Koens-Schadalee will explain how to achieve measurable ROI from a sustainability-led smart space design. 

The six half-day Summits will provide deep explorations on Cybersecurity, Control Rooms, Smart Buildings, Broadcast AV, Digital Signage, and Education Technology. The Summits will deliver real-world case studies, forward-thinking strategies, and peer-led discussions with leaders in the space.

Summit Passes are available individually for €440. An All-Conference Pass (€1150) gives access to all Summits, Megatrends sessions, the Smart Home Technology Conference, and Business Forums. 

AVIXA members receive a 30% discount on both the individual Summit Passes and the All-Conference Pass. To receive the discount, attendees should use the same email address for ISE registration as for their AVIXA account. 

CTS (Certified Technology Specialist) and ANP (Audiovisual Network Professional) Renewal Units are provided for a selection of Summit and Megatrends sessions. Check out the list of RU-approved sessions. 

In addition, ISE will host an enhanced Show Floor Tours program this year. Cost is €99.

“Key feedback, especially from new attendees to the show, has been help in navigating, so the Show Floor Tours program is bigger than ever with daily ‘New to ISE’ and ‘Megatrends’ tours as well as tours on education technologies, Broadcast AV technologies, and two off-site tours for Cybersecurity and Control Room technologies,” added Blackman.
