CRI is owned by private equity firm Pegasus Capital Advisors. Pegasus of course are also an investor in the new CoolSign. This is bad news for the AdSpace employees in Emeryville […]

Whilst many UK delegates to ISE, Amsterdam were left stranded by severe weather conditions, 460 guests out of the expected 650 made it through to The InAVation Awards on Monday 2nd February 2009 in the Ballrooms of the Hotel Okura, Amsterdam. Not surprising really that at an A/V event 18 out of the 19 award categories […]

Both companies of course join a […]

It’s not exactly digital but we liked it and for Mercedes-Benz Canada Inc., in Toronto, they are believed to be the first luxury vehicle distributor in Canada to use electroluminescent technology in a billboard advert. The automobile company is using it on a billboard within a campaign to launch its new 2010 GLK-Class premium SUV. […]

While the Montreal-based company is keeping developments close to its chest, it has booked no less a venue than the Bell Centre (home rink of the Montreal Canadiens hockey club and major concert site) Feb. 10, to unveil what it claims is the launch of […]

Looks like the Kiosk Europe folks are continuing with their efforts to cover Digital Signage – they had a stand in the Digital Signage zone at ISE but we had to laugh at the signage on the stand – shown above!!! The event is in Essen 5th, 6th and 7th May 2009.

ONELAN had a lot of good things on their stand in the Digital Signage zone at ISE, we particularly liked this interactive / touch-screen 6-Sheet sort of poster.

Interesting initiative from CBS Outdoor in launching a loyalty scheme – called ‘AdMiles’, to help ad budgets travel further. Tim Bleakley, Managing Director Sales & Marketing of CBS Outdoor told us “We want to reward our customers’ loyalty and make their advertising work harder for them. This loyalty scheme is a reflection of the hard-working […]

For completeness sake, here is the top 10 we published on Monday this week, taken (ripped out of the Powerpoint) from our presentation at the ISE DOOH Business conference. We will be following up on this post a couple of times over the next 10 days (i.e. when we are back from Amsterdam and before […]

Some tweets on Wednesday whilst we were at the show itself… @signagelive Have to agree with Jason completely. ISE2nd day was GREAT, we back now but could easily have spent 1 more day there during the Wednesday session Panasonic to cut 15,000 jobs worldwide – NOTgood for those affected but hopefully we will see the […]
