Self-Service & Kiosk Show opens

The Self-Service & Kiosk show opened yesterday (Oct 17th) at the South San Francisco Convention Center. As their PR blurb says:

The two-day event not only highlights self-service technology but also features real-world kiosk demonstrations. Show attendees are pre-screened buyers and key industry decision-makers involved with the purchasing or management of self-service/interactive kiosk solutions.

Keynote speaker Mohsen Moazami, a retail executive with Cisco Systems, is expected to speak about connected commerce and how it is re-defining the shopping experience and challenging traditional retailing models.

Other speakers include Brian Slaughter of Dell Inc. and Mark Krogh of NCR Corp.

Slaughter is scheduled to head a seminar on why 2005 is the year for digital signage, how retailers can fund digital signage initiatives and what to look for in retail digital signage solutions.
