DPAA and AdQuick Launch First-of-its-Kind OUTCOMES Initiative
NEW YORK – DPAA, the global trade marketing association driving the growth and digitization of out-of-home (OOH) advertising, has announced a strategic partnership with AdQuick, Inc., a leading platform for OOH advertising planning, buying, and measurement. The new global OUTCOMES initiative will communicate and demonstrate the power of OOH and DOOH media to deliver real measurable outcomes for brands, products, and services up and down the total marketing funnel.
This first-of-its-kind, year-round partnership soft-launched at Cannes Lions, with AdQuick as sponsor of the DPAA Curated Brands Experience sessions plus private yacht party events for brands, agencies, industry leaders, and VIPs.
Moving forward, OUTCOMES will include unique executions at impactful events such as DPAA’s Global Video Everywhere Summit on October 13, 2026; DPAA’s Curated Experiences at the 2027 editions of CES and POSSIBLE, DPAA Town Halls in major markets such as London and New York; digital events and owned content such as the WE.DOOH women’s empowerment webinars, Launchpad of Innovation podcast, email newsletters, social media, and more.
AdQuick CEO Chris Gadek said, “The time is now to future-proof the OOH industry. Whether you believe in the value that new AI-driven innovation is bringing to brands and agencies, as we do, or lean skeptical about where things are headed, the industry must align around what is ultimately most important for our businesses to succeed – driving measurable business results for brands and agencies. That means detailing the successful impact of OOH campaigns across the full customer journey, from driving conversions on the web and in apps to increasing visits, transactions, revenue, and other key performance indicators at brick-and-mortar locations. The DPAA under Barry Frey’s leadership has been the leading evangelist, executor, and emissary for the positive, innovation-forward narrative that we hope this new initiative will continue to push forward.”
Added DPAA President and CEO Barry Frey, “Chris and the team at AdQuick have zeroed in on opportunities to showcase the impact of OOH and DOOH media as the industry delivers measurement, attribution, accountability and, of course, important OUTCOMES. With OUTCOMES, we are building a year-round strategic partnership that reinforces this messaging and leadership, and which will ultimately benefit every player in advertising and media.
