Viva la Transformation! Out-of-Home never Out-of-Date

With increasing demand for media planning autonomy and access to direct buying, is the standardized OOH media buy/sell model redundant?

Success used to be driven by the strength of a traditional sales team, but this is evolving rapidly as the industry evolves. How do media owners and media buyers keep up?

Join Melanie Lindquist, Managing Director at Talon Asia Pacific, and Veronica Ong, Sales Director at Broadsign, for a discussion on the rapidly changing global OOH marketplace.
