ISTELive 2026 is almost here, and if you're making the trip to Orlando, I want to put one stop at the top of your must-visit list: BenQ at booth #2401. Every year, BenQ shows up to ISTE ready to talk about what's actually happening in classrooms — not just the shiny hardware — and this year looks like their biggest education showcase yet.
I've had the chance to work with the BenQ team for a while now, and what keeps me coming back to their booth is simple: they build technology that makes a teacher's day easier and gives IT teams one less thing to worry about. So before you map out your show floor route, here's a look at what BenQ is bringing to ISTE this year — and why I'm genuinely excited to see it in person.
What BenQ Is Showcasing at ISTELive 2026
This year's focus is AI-ready classroom technology that improves collaboration, strengthens campus communication, and simplifies the management headaches that slow schools down. Here's the lineup you can get hands-on with at booth #2401.
🖥️ BenQ Board RP05
The star of the booth is the new BenQ Board RP05, BenQ's next-generation interactive display built for engaging instruction and easier classroom collaboration. It features built-in AI tools, Google EDLA certification, and industry-first 50-point touch — so educators can build more interactive lessons while IT teams get a platform that's genuinely easy to deploy and manage.
📺 SL04 Digital Signage
The SL04 Digital Signage is the world's first Pantone® Validated signage display with Google EDLA certification. For schools, that means vibrant, reliable campus communications, announcements, and digital content — all with centralized management and enterprise-grade security.
📡 WDC15 Wireless Presentation System
The WDC15 Wireless Presentation System is a secure, app-free way for teachers, students, and guests to instantly share content from virtually any device — no software installation, no network access, no complicated setup. If you've ever lost five minutes of class trying to get someone's screen to show up, this one's for you.
BenQ's Goals for the Classroom This Year
What I appreciate about BenQ's ISTE message is that it stays grounded in classroom reality. At ISTE 2026, their focus is on equipping schools with AI-ready technology that enhances classroom collaboration, strengthens campus communication, and simplifies technology management for IT teams. Through the RP05, SL04, and WDC15, BenQ is helping educators create more engaging, interactive lessons while giving schools a platform that's easy to deploy and manage at scale.
Meet the Educators at the Booth
One of my favorite things about the BenQ booth is that it's built around educators, not just product specs. Throughout the show, BenQ is hosting in-booth presentations and discussions on practical AI adoption, classroom engagement, and real-world lessons from today's classrooms. Featured guests joining the BenQ Education ambassadors include:
- Shannon Miller — a nationally recognized librarian, author, and speaker (book signing for Nabil Goes Global on June 30 at the booth, with a limited number of free copies)
- Kim Huls — elementary educator and instructional technology advocate
- Eric Curts — edtech trainer, author, and speaker
- Andrew Davies — educator and community/social media manager at MagicSchool AI
- Dr. Amber Teamann — EdTech leader, author, and voice on digital learning and leadership
- Dr. Monica Burns — teacher, author, speaker, and education consultant
- Anna Kowal — reading teacher, speaker, and content creator
- Naomi Sarelis-Windsor — high school science teacher focused on hands-on learning
