"Hikvision HIKSHOW Stuns Audience In Antwerp"

Good marketing video and looks to be a well produced event. Also, seems in line with the type of approach / spending done in North America.

My question is: If you are running Champagne / red carpet events like this, why compete so hard on price? Is not the point of such events to convince people to pay a premium for one's products, not go through all this trouble and then wind up selling for 30-50% less than top tier competitors like Axis, Avigilon, etc.?

"Hikvision HIKSHOW Stuns Audience In Antwerp"

They forgot to address the current issues with the Backdoor and how they are going to address this beyond glossing over it with fancy promotional videos etc. They could of course have done this when the camera stopped rolling but somehow I don't think they would have. All those poor attendees will be going home competing for the same job ending up with little or no margin and several of them will no longer be in business and therefore will not be attending he next event. It is amazing to notice how few SI's are actually aware of the current issues with Hikvision kit when looking at the response on some of the other social media sources. SI's looking for IPVM articles to be emailed to them by IPVM members for example. It also show's IPVM's strength in the US market and maybe lack of it in Europe. Maybe it's time for an IPVM.co.uk or something along those lines.
