The Apex Awards honor innovation in the development and deployment of digital signage. Nominees are the end-use sites of each installation. Finalists were chosen by an independent panel of nine industry professionals from over 80 entries from 13 countries around the world.
Winners will receive either a gold, silver, or bronze award, presented at a special awards breakfast on March 12 from 7:30–9:00am at the Las Vegas Convention Center. DSE will also present the Apex Installation Award of the Year to one lucky (and talented) gold finalist.
