Sanket Rambhia, Managing Director, LEDX Technology & Xtreme Media
Sanket Rambhia's journey in digital visual technology began at BlackRock (2006–2009), where he witnessed the magnetic power of Times Square's digital landscape. That experience crystallized a vision: to recreate India's own world-class LED display ecosystem. He founded Xtreme Media, which has grown into one of India's leading active LED display brands, transforming India's visual landscape across retail, hospitality, corporate, and entertainment sectors.
Recognizing the critical need for supply chain independence and manufacturing excellence, Sanket established LEDX Technology—a state-of-the-art, automation-first LED display manufacturing facility. Today, as MD of both enterprises, he is architecting India's transformation into a global hub for precision LED display manufacturing. His leadership is defined by a commitment to innovation, operational excellence, ethical business practices, and collaborative partnerships that serve both domestic and international markets.

Everyone keeps calling India “the next big market” - but what if it’s already the most important digital signage opportunity the industry is ignoring? Retail is booming, LED adoption is exploding, and global brands are pouring into India with a speed that makes Western markets look stuck in slow motion.
Meanwhile, India is building something no other region currently offers: scale, momentum, and an entirely new class of ambitious local players ready to compete globally.
This panel asks the uncomfortable questions most vendors avoid: Is India still an emerging market — or the growth engine the industry desperately needs? Are global DS players prepared to compete with India’s rising champions? Can India leapfrog legacy infrastructure and build the future of screens from scratch? And what happens when a billion‑plus consumers shape the next wave of digital experiences?
This isn’t just another “expanding region.” It’s the market with the power to make or break the next generation of DS and DooH strategies.
Every region claims to be the ‘next big thing’ - but the global digital signage industry is far more fragmented, political, and unpredictable than the headlines suggest. What’s booming in India is stagnating in North America. What’s consolidating in Europe is exploding in LATAM. What’s innovating in APAC is being regulated in the Middle East.
This panel brings together global insiders who aren’t afraid to say what’s actually happening - and what’s not. We’ll dig into what really drives global growth (and what kills it): Supply chains under pressure, Tariff‑shaped markets, Local champions rising as global vendors retreat, Regional regulatory headaches, Diverging technology preferences. And the billion‑dollar question: Which region will define the next decade of digital signage?
