Living Media: DOOH and The Experience Economy

Who needs a "metaverse" when digital screens and rich, imaginative interactions are possible in real life? As Digital Out of Home screens pop up everywhere you glance - even F1 racers and shopping carts, digital try-ons. and gamified billboards - the medium is a part of the landscape of everyday life. This is not media as we have known it. This is media evolving into lived outdoor experience.

At the Fall edition of MediaPost's Digital Out of Home Insider Summit, we explore DOOH as a way brands are not just getting attention but weaving into the mediascape and customers' IRL path to purchase. They can play lower in the funnel and become part of the last-mile decision-making process. They can surprise, delight, even shock passersby. They can gamify or enhance any moment, anywhere. How can DOOH not just catch glances and grab attention, but become experiential media?

We will explore:

- Planning DOOH as an Omnichannel Driver
- The Next Screens in DOOH Expansion
- Measurement and Evolving KPIs
- Leveraging Programmatic DOOH Advantages
- Performance DOOH in Last Mile Media
- AI and OOH Personalization

MediaPost's DOOH Insider Summit explores the bleeding edge of a post-media world - where DOOH puts the metaverse right outside your door.

Activities

Thursday 2 p.m.

Cruise on Lake Austin

Enjoy the beauty of Lake Austin and its surroundings on this fun and scenic cruise. Located just minutes from downtown, what it lacks in size, it makes up for in proximity and charm.  You’ll see tons of multi-million dollar homes, the famous 360/Pennybacker bridge and Austin Country Club, site of the annual Dell Match Play golf tournament each spring.  Refreshments and great networking abound with your fellow Summiters.  A memorable excursion, for sure!

Thursday 2 p.m.

Brewery Tour

Join fellow summit attendees aboard Austin’s only concert on wheels! The Twisted Texas Tour bus features a local band riding on board, providing the jams for a good time as we visit THREE local breweries. At each of the breweries, they will serve up local craft brews. You’ll get to try seasonal releases and small batch brews not found anywhere else. Your tour guide will also give a little information about the local craft beer scene and the brews on tap.

Thursday 2 p.m.

Kayak on Austin Town Lake

Experience the scenic and beautiful Austin from the unique perspective of your kayak on this 2-hour tour.  Paddle along and discover some of Austin's great landmarks, including Barton Springs, the Congress Avenue Bridge (famous for its 2 million bats), the Stevie Ray Vaughan statue, and the Austin boardwalk. The tour is a mix of history, new landmarks in the expanding Austin skyline and we also include a little information about the wildlife in the area.




Friday 2 p.m.

Austin City Limits

Spend the afternoon (and later the evening if desired) at the Austin City Limits Music Festival, one of the top annual musical events in the USA. Held in nearby Zilker Park, "ACL" consists of two consecutive three-day weekends. Inspired by the PBS music series of the same name, the festival is produced by Austin-based company C3 Presents, which also produces Lollapalooza.

Friday 2 p.m.

Axe Throwing at Urban Axes

Join fellow summit attendees at Urban Axes for a fun afternoon. The sport of axe throwing was invented about 5 minutes after the first axe was created, however it was traditionally undertaken in the outdoors, far away from urban environments. Our aim is to take axe throwing out of the woods and into the bright lights of the big city, by presenting you with ... Urban Axe Throwing!

Friday 2 p.m.

Rooftop Pool Afternoon Hang-out

Relax in style at the outdoor pool atop the Otis Hotel with great views of the city of Austin... Cold, refreshing drinks will be available for purchase at the pool bar!
