Verizon Media Bolsters Digital OOH Offerings as Industry Readies to Bounce Back

It will inject more first-party data into the product suite

Verizon Media already powers DOOH inventory in both its supply- and demand-side platforms. Now the company is using its identity graph and layering in first-party data from its ConnectID to have more forecasting, retargeting and measurement offerings.
