Mark Halliday, Director of Programmatic

I absolutely loved seeing the exceptional quality of entries to this year's awards; I can honestly say that the calibre of entries has improved year on year, with a really impressive baseline of insight, data, creativity, execution and measurement. It was such a treat to discuss these entries at length with our judges, as we took on the difficult job of narrowing down the campaigns that unequivocally demonstrate the power of programmatic DOOH. I look forward to welcoming entrants to our awards ceremony on the 12th May - wishing the very best of luck to everyone who has been shortlisted.
