THE outdoor advertising industry is expected to continue a modest growth in 2024, primarily driven by digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising in light of the challenging economic landscape.

Below are the excerpts of the interview.

StarBiz: How will the outdoor advertising industry on the whole, out-of-home (OOH) as well as digital OOH (DOOH) advertising, fare this year? Will its outlook be better than last year?
