4. The Eco-System
Ads need to be relevant and real-time – non-intrusive
Primarily for mobile devices – smart phones and tablets
Use an “overlay” technology to enable publishing on HTML pages
Enables campaign management and flexible ad-scheduling
Uses a transparent, shared billing system and impressions dashboard
Deploys using location-based services to Wi-Fi access point level
Uses either an in-venue technology appliance or centralized ad servers and
internet gateways
Works well with shared revenue commercial models

response rates
Ads “float” over the
web page, not
embedded Mobile ads are full screen
or “push-down”, not small,
hard-to-read banners
