  • Agencies and out-of-home: how they learned to love each other
    Oct 8 2025
    From a traditional "direct" medium to a data-driven powerhouse, out-of-home media has undergone a true evolution.

Duncan Greive is joined by Kurt Malcolm, Head of Trading and Platforms at JCDecaux NZ, and Richard Thompson, Founder of D3, to discuss how innovations like knOOH - a cross-industry collaboration to measure audience - have contributed to the continued rise of out-of-home in Aotearoa. This is the final episode of our partnership with JC Decaux. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
