EDITORIAL: 2020 the year of ‘digital experiences’

I stepped off the plane at Pittsburgh International Airport on March 13, making it home just in time to stay-at-home, the order issued by many states to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Since that late-winter trip to Las Vegas to cover ConExpo-Con/Agg - likely the nation's last major in-person tradeshow prior to the pandemic-induced lockdown - I've been grounded.

Like so many others across the country and the world, I've taken up post in front of my monitors and logged in to countless Zoom meetings and other virtual platforms to “attend” digital summits, webinars, product launches, et cetera.
