Display Week 2019 also hosted the 8th annual I-Zone, an exhibition-within-the-exhibition where start-ups, universities, small companies and researchers from around the world had the rare opportunity to share their technological advances, pre-market prototypes and demos alongside global giants. Additionally, the four-day technical symposium drew hundreds of papers from the global community that were shared live by highly respected scientists, researchers and business leaders, and through poster presentations. Multiple technical sessions focused on some of the hottest topics in the display arena: AR/VR/MR and foldables, bendables, rollables. Attendees had the chance to hob-nob with world leaders and gain valuable insights from industry icons and visionaries at the keynote sessions, the business track conferences, and our CEO Forum and Women in Tech panelist discussions. And our second annual Job Fair gave job seekers at all career levels the opportunity for one-on-one interviews with hiring global companies. |
