The Out-of-Home Advertising Association of America (OAAA) this morning announced a new “Brand Council” comprised of consumer marketing executives and said the goal of the council is to help “advise and shape the future” of the medium by collaborating with suppliers on issues and developing trends influencing the use of out-of-home media.

The association described the council’s process as a series of “closed-door sessions to facilitate candidate dialogues,” as well as projects including “exclusive access to beta testing on” new and emerging out-of-home media platforms.

The nine charter members of the new council include:

Maria Givens, global head of media and digital, Logitech
