Visual X: Setting new standards for digital visual and intelligent display solutions at Prolight + Sound Guangzhou 2024

13 May 2024

Guangzhou, 13 May 2024. Excitement is building as the industry gears up for the highly anticipated Prolight + Sound Guangzhou, where the spotlight will also shine brightly on the Guangzhou International Digital Vision and Intelligent Display Solutions, also known as "Visual X." Taking place from 23 – 26 May 2024 at Hall 12.2, Area B of the China Import and Export Fair Complex, this specialised showcase is a joint effort by the Shanghai Multimedia Industry Association, Messe Frankfurt, and Guangdong International Science and Technology Exhibition Co Ltd. Visitor registration is now open, allowing professionals in the digital visual and intelligent display sectors to experience the advanced solutions presented by Visual X.

Designers, installers, and tech-savvy enthusiasts will have a unique opportunity to explore the latest interactive display software and hardware, multimedia solutions, digital content creation, and hardware products on a global scale at Visual X, which delves into the boundless possibilities of digital visual technology and intelligent displays across diverse sectors such as culture, tourism, education, visual arts and new media. Renowned companies in the industry, such as Chuangyi, Digital Vision, Diheng, EAGUO, ELEPN, General Entertainment, Golden Screen, Huidu, Ledu Optoelectronic, Ling Companion, Motion Magic and SVSJET, will be among the exhibitors, offering cutting-edge products and systems.

“As this industry grows by leaps, it becomes pivotal for participants to connect with experts to share the latest technologies and solutions”, says Ms Judy Cheung, Deputy General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd.  "As Prolight + Sound Guangzhou has grown into one of the world's largest trade fairs for the entertainment and pro AV industry, Visual X will leverage the extensive resources and visitor base of the show, creating an unparalleled trade platform."

Mr Ming HaoXia, Secretary General of the Shanghai Multimedia Industry Association, emphasised the association’s unwavering commitment to enhancing services and support for its members through the organisation of Visual X. “This event is set to facilitate profound interactions between our members and industry buyers, fostering cooperation opportunities, and driving industry transformation,” he explains.

Increasing demand for cutting-edge technologies and innovative solutions in areas such as digital cultural tourism, immersive visual experiences, multimedia interaction, and intelligent displays has driven the need for a showcase like Visual X. In December 2023, the Chinese government announced plans to bolster support for the development of immersive projects and spaces, with a focus on urban renewal initiatives. In response to these burgeoning needs, Visual X aims to offer the industry a quality platform that integrates business exchange, brand promotion, and the sharing of technical knowledge and information.

Ms Ma Jing, General Manager of Guangdong International Science and Technology Exhibition Co Ltd, shed light on the three key factors contributing to the success of an event: “Timing, location, and synergy – Visual X is perfectly poised with these elements, benefiting from national policy support and the robust capabilities of the three organisers, each with its unique strengths. The showcase will be a convergence of industry expertise, international scope, governmental influence, and regional advantages, crafting an unrivalled experience.”

The new Visual X showcase aims to forge connections between leading industry software and hardware solution providers and digital content creators, catering to the ever-evolving market demands. The showcase will extensively explore the applications of digital visual technology and intelligent displays across a wide range of sectors, including culture, tourism, education, visual arts, film and television, retail, e-commerce, automotive, healthcare, entertainment, new media, and more.
