[Issue 106] March 29, 2017

Next week is the Prolight + Sound Frankfurt exhibition and so other than the first news, we have highlighted new solutions that are planned to be unveiled in Frankfurt. If you are heading to Frankfurt, you may want to check out what lies ahead. I had not visited last year but will be making my way to the show this year. As I had missed on the new hall position last year and other things that were introduced, I am keen to see how the changes are adding value to the exhibition.
