Thank you so much for assisting with the digital signage during our show. I know we put you through some crunch time during the conference, but I am really pleased with how it turned out. I appreciate your flexibility and responsiveness to all our requests. As our first foray into digital signage, I think we achieved what we wanted and I really learned a lot. Thank you all so much for making our show a success!

Working with Digital Conventions on the digital signage for the ASCRS ASOA Annual Meeting was a great experience from start to finish. They were incredibly creative and patient in working with us to develop the artwork to put the show vision together on the digital screens throughout the convention center. The digital signage popped and help transform the space to enhance the experience for all attendees!
