At the Cannes Lions festival last week, Clear Channel International brought together experts from across the advertising ecosystem to discuss the future of out-of-home advertising and its evolution from broadcast to narrowcast.

Netflix & Billboards: Why Digital Brands Are Cosying Up to Analogue OOH
A surprise bidder has reportedly emerged in the race for out-of-home (OOH) media company Regency Outdoor: Netflix.

Amidst all these challenges, digital out-of-home’s star continues to rise, writes Dominic Murray, group creative account director, Kinetic Active. Figures released by Outsmart and PwC recently revealed that, for the first time, digital out-of-home (DOOH) has grown to account for 50% of total out-of-home [...]
Why OOH Is the Answer for Digital Advertisers in a GDPR World
With GDPR set to significantly change digital advertising in the near future, it may be time to explore other channels of distributing ads where strict opt-ins are not an issue. Craig Mytton (pictured below), CRO, Bitposter, argues for OOH as an alternative that will reach the consumer, yet does not have to battle privacy and ad blocking issues. The looming GDPR regulations pose a huge threat to digital advertisers who are currently using data to target customers online. Without the stringent [...]
Cannes Lions Gets to Grips with Digitisation in Major Outdoor Overhaul
