ISE 2026 has started! Keep up with all that is happening with the Day 1 edition of the Official ISE Show Daily, which includes today’s CEDIA and AVIXA conference sessions, exhibitor listings, new products, behind-the-scenes insights, and more.

As Integrated Systems Europe opens its doors this morning, Mike Blackman is already balancing the immediacy of show week with a longer-term view of what comes next. After more than two decades at the helm of ISE, he remains acutely aware that size alone is never enough. “We might be the biggest at the moment, but we have to work hard to stay there,” he says. “The key is we don’t do what we think is best. We do what our customers think is best.”

Matt Clark, renowned British artist and founder of United Visual Artists (UVA), will deliver ISE 2026’s Creative Keynote, ‘Hidden Order: Building a Performance-led Mapping at Casa Batlló, from Concept to Implementation’ today, 3:30-4:15pm, in Room CC4.1. This inspiring session will offer a rare, behind-the-scenes look at ‘Hidden Order’, the stunning façade mapping that took place January 31 and February 1, just before ISE 2026 kicked-off.
