GET READY TO GO! GET READY TO GROW!

Since the start of our EYES ON Media Measurement venture, as well as industry initiatives like the greening of out of home -- including the change-over to one-sheet polyethylene posters -- we have been building up tremendous momentum. Now it’s time to get GO-ing!, to firmly establish this new era of buying and selling our medium. And because people involved in a common task more readily achieve their goals, TAB and the OAAA have united for this push into the future -- coming together for the 2010 conference -- bringing you the best education, inspiration and technology that the industry has to offer.

GO! 2OIO is the premier place to connect with advertisers, advertising agencies/buying services, media companies, and suppliers -- and explore the ever-changing world of out of home.
