The Resurgence of Out-of-Home Advertising

Out-of-home advertising is witnessing a revival, driven largely by advancements in technology and programmatic buying. Digital advertising networks are now integrating their out-of-home inventory into demand-side platforms, making it easier for advertisers to purchase billboard space. This accessibility allows for more precise targeting based on demographics and real-time data, similar to digital ad buying.
