The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as digital transformation, targeted advertising solutions, mobile integration, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and a focus on environmental sustainability. Major trends expected in the forecast period encompass cross-channel campaigns, interactive advertising, mobile integration, data-driven targeting, and programmatic buying.

The anticipated rise in digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising is poised to contribute to the expansion of the billboard and outdoor advertising markets. Out-of-home (OOH) advertising encompasses promotional activities outside the home, including billboards, bus shelters, wallscapes, and posters. DOOH, exemplified by outdoor signage, digital billboards, and television screens, offers a dynamic alternative to traditional billboards by displaying live images and running multiple advertisements, capturing a broader consumer audience. Reports from SEO by Sociallyin indicate an estimated 19.2% growth in DOOH advertising spending, reaching $3.84 billion in 2023, showcasing its lucrative and engaging nature.

The increasing adoption of digital marketing is expected to drive the growth of the billboard and outdoor advertising market. Digital marketing utilizes digital channels and platforms to promote products, services, or brands, enhancing the interactivity, engagement, and targeting capabilities of billboard and outdoor advertising. The digital marketing sector exhibited a 14% increase in expenditure in 2020 and 2021, with an anticipated annual expansion of 9%, as reported by Ranktracker. Oracle Corporation highlights the global rise in digital advertising spending, projected to grow from $378 billion in 2020 to $646 billion by 2024. This surge in digital marketing adoption serves as a catalyst for the growth of the billboard and outdoor advertising market.

Regulatory standards imposed by governments globally pose challenges to the global billboard and outdoor advertising market. Regulations, such as restrictions on advertising certain products near schools and limitations on political advertising in specific locations, vary across regions. The Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP) in the UK oversees non-broadcast advertising, enforcing extensive regulations covering areas such as environmental claims, gambling, alcohol sales, and e-cigarettes. In the US, many states adopt lighting standards to prevent glare from digital billboards, ensuring they do not impact the vision of passersby. While these regulations aim to benefit society, they present hurdles for the advertising business.

The expansion of programmatic media buying emerges as a notable trend in digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising. Programmatic advertising utilizes automated technology to purchase advertising space, relying on data insights and algorithms to deliver targeted advertisements at optimal times and prices. PubMatic, Inc. reported that about 82% of viewers could recall a DOOH advertisement seen over a month ago. Brands are increasingly adopting in-house programmatic media buying capabilities to gain control and transparency over programmatic inventory. In April 2021, PubMatic collaborated with BT and Essence, enabling BT to enhance visibility into its total media spend and investigate the 'unknown delta.'

Major companies in the billboard and outdoor advertising market are actively innovating technological products to enhance the accessibility and effectiveness of DOOH advertising. For instance, JCDecaux Group launched a programmatic DOOH offering for the Brazilian market in June 2022, allowing real-time automated buying and selling of DOOH advertising inventory. This approach mirrors programmatic online advertising but is tailored specifically for DOOH screens, enabling advertisers to purchase inventory efficiently and at scale.
