Campaign has announced its latest edition, and potentially the most controversial, of Campaign Breakfast Briefing 2023, OOH: Signs of Progress on November 4. And, this time, it’s bigger and better than ever from 8am to 12pm at Westin Mina Seyahi.
Our annual out-of-home event, in it’s 4th year, has expanded its timings and venue. Which could only mean one thing – more panels, more speakers, more networking, and the best of all, more insights into the industry.
We will be taking a deep dive into most pressing topics in the OOH media.
How digitalisation is affecting all aspects of outdoor advertising – from measurement to creativity. Industry experts will also examine measurement, data, metrics and transparency. They will, also, look at the long-running ambition of industry players to form a representative body. And a lot more besides.
There’s also plenty of opportunities to network with prominent industry players at our breakfast. It’s a morning of debate, insights, networking and breakfast at one of our most popular and productive events of the year.
Book your seat at the Briefing for a nominal fee of 95 dirhams.
Speakers to be announced soon.
