The Strategy Institute held their 3rd Annual DOOH Investor Conference yesterday at the Hilton New York.

Great turn out and quite the mix of firms.  There’s a lot of interest in this space and lots of money available for the right business which is well packaged.  Private company investments with exits 3 years from now are super attractive given the “sky is falling” attitudes that you see on the faces of folks here in NY on the public side of things.

Congrats to David, Christie and the rest of the crew on a great, well attended event.

For those who do not know about it, the fine folks at The Strategy Institute are hosting the Third Annual Digital Out Of Home Investor Conference starting tomorrow at the Hilton New York.

Past attendees have said good things about it and if you’re interested in investing in or getting investment, as I know many of you are, it may be a good one to attend.

I, unfortunately, got pulled away to Chicago on the Tuesday but will be speaking on the 8th in the morning if you want to chat.  Graeme Spicer from my organization will be there for the Tuesday

The First Annual Madison Avenue Boxing event was held last night at BB King’s on West 42nd Street.

Basically, it’s a replica of the iBanker Boxing matches that started a while ago.  Basically, there were 84 “applicants” selected from various agencies and that was, through training and selection, brought down to about 24 boxers who were trained and paired up in rounds.

It was a great event, hosted by Doubledown Media, AdWeek, DirectTV, The Ad Club and a few others.  Well done!  Boxers had 3 rounds to decide a winner…to be honest, it was better boxing than I expected!

Boxers (and the crowd) was from all over the ad biz…Van Wagner, MediaCom, etc, etc…mostly creative agency folk it seemed but a good breakdown all told.

Definitely a must attend next time it comes around!
