“In-store Retail Media Networks represent huge opportunities for brands and agencies across the globe and is the next frontier of Digital Out of Home, via the placement of dynamic digital screens exactly where purchase decisions happen,” said Barry Frey, President & CEO of DPAA. “With 84% of purchases still occurring in physical stores, the opportunity for brands and retailers to influence shoppers at the moment of truth is unprecedented. This comprehensive program will guide stakeholders through network development while examining proven strategies for maximizing in-store digital media impact.”

Virtually the DPAA are also holding a Maximizing In-Store Digital Touchpoints‘ Webinar on Wednesday November 20 but starting at 7am PT / 10am ET / 15:00 GMT.
