THIS IS A PROMOTED POST
As ISE 2026 approaches, we’re highlighting some of the companies exhibiting on the show floor and previewing what they plan to showcase in Barcelona. This interview is with Crestron‘s Brad Hintze, Executive Vice President of Customer Success and Marketing.
Q: What’s driving your decision to exhibit at ISE 2026, and what are you hoping attendees take away from your presence this year?
A: We have some exciting solutions that are making their debut at ISE this year. We’re excited to show off new additions to our portfolios that will take collaboration to the next level, delivering fast deployments for IT professionals, more effective experiences for end users, and measurable ROI for business leaders.
Q: What solutions or experiences are you unveiling in Barcelona that showcase how your company is evolving?
A: Last year, we introduced our three core areas of expertise: Content, Collaboration, and Control. We have continued to iterate on that idea with new additions to our portfolio that help to deliver what we’re calling a “Culture of Collaboration.” Our engineering teams have thoughtfully developed these solutions for more effortless collaborations that enable those using them to be more present, productive, and engaged.
Q: Where is your biggest growth or momentum coming from as we move into 2026 — new markets, partnerships or product categories?
A: Our growing portfolio will certainly be a strength of ours this year. On January 20, we announced a full slate of new products from core technologies and new AI capabilities to improved user interfaces and expanded peripheral options.
Q: For someone walking the show floor with limited time, why is your booth worth the stop?
A: Crestron offers a diverse portfolio of solutions that serve a multitude of use cases across nearly every vertical. The adaptability of these solutions means that there is typically something for everyone. Whether it’s enabling multi-camera experiences in a boardroom, delivering campus-wide content distribution across a university, or equipping a superyacht with custom smart home controls, Crestron can do it all.
Q: Any sneak peeks or big announcements you can hint at before the show?
During our event last week, we highlighted several new solutions including Collab Compute, the Automate VX 6.5 multi-camera speaker tracking solution, the new 80-Series Touch Screens and the 1 Beyond i12D Cameras.
