BARCO : Meeting up with the world of showbiz in Abu Dhabi

Inspire, pitch ideas and discuss
The idea behind the new International Showbiz Expo is to bring local film, TV, theater, digital content and media companies, as well as young, independent talent together with today's industry experts from all over the world. The 'educational' aspect of the new event is of key importance, as it is a perfect way to inspire participants to boost their business. Through presentations by leading speakers from Hollywood, Bollywood, Asia and the Middle East - including a keynote by Cheryl Boone Isaacs, President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences -, panel discussions and forums, visitors will be able to share information, pitch ideas and discuss opportunities for developing their media infrastructure in the Middle East.

Meeting face to face
Just as inspiring will be the face-to-face meetings with the many exhibitors, i.e. film studios, distributors, media outlets, cinema infrastructure and technology providers, talent and marketing agencies, theater companies, festivals etc. from around the world.

At the Barco booth, visitors will learn how Barco innovations help customers create exceptional entertainment experiences. Solutions on display include our DP4K-32B digital cinema projector with Alchemy server, the AP24 Barco Auro 11.1 processor, our OBLX freestanding structure with three NSL displays, digital lobby signage and the exciting DOOHapps interactive play wall. To further highlight our commitment to new technology, we've delivered a DP2K-10S digital cinema projector and a ClickShare presentation system to accommodate the conferences in the main theater. For those who want to see some more Barco: there's also a Barco DP2K-20C digital cinema projector and Barco Alchemy server at the booth of our partner CineTech. So we're all ready … let the show begin!
