Ars Electronica Solutions has taken the top prize in the AUSTRIACUSโ POINT OF SALE/TRADE SHOW ARCHITECTURE category for its design of Primetals Technologiesโ interactive stand at METEC 2015. The jury praised Ars Electronica Solutionsโ design as โa best-practice example of whatโs happening in this field right now: the presentation stand morphing into a setting for an interactive experience.โ Moreover, this concept is said to have raised the state-of-the-art in trade show stand design to a new level. This nationwide competition among Austrian advertising and marketing communication agencies premiered in 2017.
