Global OoH: WOO Launches Search for Chief Executive Officer
The World Out of Home Organization (WOO) has launched a search for a new chief executive officer to lead the day-to-day operations of the global industry body.

At the same time, WOO introduced two new directors: Elizabeth McIntyre, CEO of OMA, Australia’s Outdoor Media Association has joined the board of the World Out of Home Organization along with Felipe Viante, co-founder of B.drops and President of the Brazilian Out of Home Association, the ABOOH.
