Get Some Standards. What They Mean for #OOH

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

There are plenty of free presentations and panel discussions taking place during New York Digital Signage Week. On the afternoon of Thursday October 14, 2021 Leslie Lee, Vice President Marketing, Vistar Media is chairing a panel discussion entitled ‘Get Some Standards: OpenRTB, Recent & Upcoming Guidelines and What They Mean for OOH’ which will feature: –

  • Ian Dallimore, Vice President of Digital Growth + Programmatic, Lamar
  • Kumi Ebihara, Senior Director, Inventory Partnerships at Yahoo

Leslie told us “The diversity of media formats and unique nature of out-of-home as a public media channel are what make OOH a compelling offering to advertisers. But as the world’s largest omnichannel media buyer platforms incorporate OOH into their programmatic array, our industry needs to address some of the pain points caused by the fragmentation of offerings across media owners. This panel will discuss the recent work by the OAAA, IAB Tech Lab and other working groups to roll out standards around venue taxonomy, exposure methodology for attribution and the OpenRTB technical spec documentation. The group will also discuss the biggest challenges ahead – establishing a system for universal screen IDs, setting latency standards and streamlining creatives”.

The panel discussion will take place during the DSNY Table Top Trade Show and you will need to register for that (don’t worry, it’s free) to gain access.
