DPAA Initial Speakers for NYC Global Summit
Risk verses Reward. Bang for the Buck. What OOH Conference delivers the most value? There are only two Out of Home related Conferences OOH Today strongly endorses and highly recommends attendance; the annual OAAA OOH Media Conference, already held this year in Carlsbad, California on April 29 through May 1, (Note the OAAA Conference for 2025 is May 5-7 in Boston) and the upcoming annual DPAA Global Summit in NYC. We are fully aware of and have attended many of the other ‘must attend conferences‘ and for many reasons specific to each, we do not recommend annual attendance. The two must are DPAA and OAAA. You are in luck as the DPAA is coming soon, this October 15. It has been known to sell out. Get registered and secure your hotel. It is an event not to be missed.
