The UAE has always been at the forefront of advertising innovation. As cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi advance toward smart-city ecosystems, interactive outdoor media is becoming the next major evolution of Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising. Billboards are no longer just seen — they are experienced.
From touch-enabled digital screens to mobile-connected campaigns, interactive outdoor media is reshaping how brands communicate in public spaces. At dnauae, we support this future by delivering high-quality printing, signage, and digital-ready visuals that bring interactive campaigns to life.
