OUT OF HOME: A Knockout
Explosion in digital boards, new measurement methods expected to juice OOH business
By Richard Zitrin
September 29, 2008
Technology, coupled with advancements in audience measurement, are expected to spur growth in the out-of-home media sector in 2009.
OOH spending will rise 7 percent to $8.21 billion, PricewaterhouseCoopers projects. ZenithOptimedia paints an even rosier scenario, projecting 11.3 percent growth to $8.71 billion.
The optimistic outlook comes amid a slowdown this year due to a soft economy. OOH is up less than 3 percent for the year, below the 4.7 growth PwC had projected.

During an update on various initiatives by the bureau, Out-of-Home Video Advertising Bureau President Suzanne Alecia confirmed OVAB is in discussions with Havas' MPG unit about scheduling a special "Collaborative Alliance" meeting that would focus exclusively on digital out-of-home developments, and potentially, deals. Details of the meeting, including when and where it will be held, are still being hashed out, and the OVAB members have yet to weigh in on it, but the idea was the brainchild of MPG COO Steve Lanzano, who wants to do for digital out-of-home media, what the agency's collaborative alliance has done for interactive television: bring a wide cross-section of industry stakeholders together - including competitors - in a neutral environment to share information and brainstorm about how the industry can utilize emerging media platforms for the greater good of everyone concerned.
