Ahmad Ouri, president and CEO of PRN, who of course is also speaking at our #DSInvestor Conference in New York on Wednesday 17th October told us “As the primary digital advertising medium exclusively targeting consumers while they’re in retail or dining environments, Placed-based Media will play a key role in omni-channel strategies and bring together social, mobile and other platforms to provide a brand experience that is truly relevant and engaging”.

To demonstrate the role of mobile technology in place-based advertising, PRN will hold a sweepstakes drawing where Advertising Week attendees can learn about and enter via a mix of mobile and place-based media.

Two brand new Fiat automobiles will be awarded as the Grand Prizes. “As participants enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win a new car, they’ll experience the power of pairing mobile strategies with Digital Place-based Media and how it results in very effective brand engagement,” said Ouri.

Additionally, during Advertising Week’s invitation-only events, PRN will offer sneak previews and demonstrate the next phase in Digital Place-based Media at its Conversation Station, located at Booth 5, for select members of the press and other guests.

We are also told to watch out for a major transformational announcement coming from PRN at Advertising Week on 1st October!
