Keynote speakers have been sourced from the advertising community to include international experts with global point of view, as well as leading industry personalities in the Asia Pacific region.
Some of the speakers at this two day convention include Annie Rickard, president, Posterscope Worldwide; Mark Thewlis, regional president, Asia Pacific, Clear Channel Outdoor; Ravi Kiran, CEO, South Asia and emerging market leader, specialist solutions, Starcom MediaVest Group; Todd Tran, MD, Joule; Jeremy Corfield, global director, Eye Fly; and Ng Tian It, ECD, Lowe Worldwide China.
Presentation topics will cover the entire gamut of the OOH media business, current and future. The convention will be hosted at the iconic Macau Tower.

As Graham says, “If it is out there, it is in here, at the Asia Pacific OOH Media Convention.”
