Out of Home (OOH) is defined as advertising that reaches people outside of their homes in public places. This fast-growing industry includes traditional media displayed on billboards and posters, typically in waiting areas (such as train stations or bus shelters), as well as roads, motorways and in-transit. The entire UK OOH industry is worth more than £1 billion.  Digital Out Of Home (DOOH) lets brands distribute creative, dynamic and (vitally) on-the-fly messaging into essentially any venue, including shopping centres, cinemas, restaurants, bars, gyms and petrol stations. DOOH ad spending is growing at a phenomenal rate and is expected to account for 47% of the total UK OOH market in 2018, reports eMarketer.  We speak to Kevin Henry, Head of Content & Sponsorship for Ocean Outdoor.  

Having created the Digital Out of Home (DOOH) category in 2005, Ocean has pioneered, driven and established DOOH to be the engaging media channel that it is today, accounting for circa 50% of all OOH spend.  Ocean delivers an advertising channel that exceeds the traditional OOH market through merging the inherent branding strengths of OOH and enhancing through location, audience, research, data and unique technology.    Ocean is the pioneer in DOOH advertising technology, leading a new wave of creative solutions through its Ocean Labs division including proprietary solutions such as Vehicle Detection Technology, SimplyFi (Wi-Fi Sponsorship), LookOut Facial Detection Technology and Augmented Reality 
  Ocean sees digital marketing, in all its forms, as a companion, not a competitor. The most progressive of modern marketers is one that understands the combination of the accuracy and accountability of digital, and the impact, trust & fame building abilities delivered by the overtness of out-of-home, is a winning formula in today’s cluttered advertising market.   Hear the secrets of OOH advertising success.
