The award recognizes DSE's significant growth over its first three years of operation (2004-2006).
- Digital Signage Expo, which moves to Las Vegas from Chicago this year, will feature an expanded conference program, and there will also be a pre-conference live case study Installation Tour on February 26, and the debut of a global virtual tour of the latest in digital signage that will feature industry-specific case study presentations from countries around the world. Additionally, 30 educational sessions as DSE will focus on retail, advertising and marketing, hospitality, public spaces, and digital signage 101.

- On February 28 the Keynote Breakfast Session will be "Digital Life: Living the Future", presented by Dr. Andrew Lippman, associate director, MIT Media Lab. Lippman will explore such topics as free digital displays, electronic ink blending displays into walls like wallpaper, and displays as part of our clothing and landscape. He will show how to reach this future, take attendees on a tour of some of its features, and introduce them to a growing program at MIT called "Living the Future" where the campus will be transformed into a participatory, inventive, and dynamic universe.
