Istanbul Atatürk Airport Installs Dynamic Digital Media Network
Istanbul – The digital advertising and communication platform installed at the International terminals of Atatürk Airport creates a distinctive advertising media enabling the airport’s visitors to receive innovative and dynamic branded communications.
Digiboard, a certified Scala Partner in Turkey, installed the Dynamic Digital Media Network at the largest airport in Turkey. Digiboard has merged with progressive TAV (Tepe Akfen Vie) to offer branded commercials for advertisers throughout the airport.
Istanbul Atatürk International Airport the Dynamic Digital Media Network reaches an audience of 50,000 travelers per day. This number increases to 70,000 – 80,000 during the high tourist season — reaching an estimated 20 million travelers per year. The 24/7 broadcast displays dynamic advertising and a variety of airport information.
Digiboard’s 58 plasma screens are positioned at strategic locations throughout the airport, mainly at the Duty free shops, gateways, boarding areas, passport control and baggage collection areas. The airport has a variety of 42” and 60” screens deployed.
To influence the purchasing power of travelers throughout the airport, the Dynamic Digital Media Network displays 144 world-class advertising spots at each location. Located at the heavily visited duty free area, a Philips 120” LED screen allows Digiboard to enhance their communications and deliver focused messages directly to international travelers.
“By advertising brands on LED screens, we have the opportunity to maximize the quality of the brand of each advertiser. We’ve invested in dynamic and eye catching content created by the collaboration between advertising agencies and our in house creative department”, says Lazar Demisulam, Digiboard Director. “Although the LED screen has been operating only a short time, Digiboard has already secured agreements with 3 major advertisers.”
“We plan to broadcast 2-minute loops consisting of 8 branded advertisements by the end of February 2006” , says Burcu Ersen, Communication Representative for Digiboard. “It is our hope that LED screens at the Atatürk International Airport will revolutionize communication with travelers and increase revenue opportunities well beyond the expenses involved.”
