The partnership will recognise and leverage the customer and marketing benefits that can be realised through exciting opportunities being developed at a new generation of smart airports, as they serve growing passenger numbers. Ad technology, combining digital displays and personalised communication across customer touchpoints throughout the airport journey will create a powerful and valuable marketing proposition for regional, audience-focused and destination-based clients.

Naren Patel, CEO of Primesight, said: “Primesight is delighted to be awarded this contract. MAG has an exciting environment, which is growing in diversity and number of passengers. New routes, improved terminal facilities and MAG’s active interest in developing great advertising opportunities will allow us to create more engaging and relevant advertising opportunities in these unique spaces.”
