- Will leverage DOCOMO's advanced data-science technology for estimating DOOH advertising viewership size and attributes -

TOKYO, July 29, 2024 - (JCN Newswire) - NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that it has signed an agreement on July 19 with DATVIETVAC GROUP HOLDINGS (DatVietVAC), a Vietnamese media conglomerate and DAT VIET OOH CORPORATION (DatVietOOH) to establish a joint venture company, VIE BOARD CORPORATION (Vie BOARD), and to jointly consolidate a digital out-of-home (DOOH) business in Vietnam. Vie BOARD is scheduled to be established in August this year, contingent upon obtaining antitrust approvals and other necessary authorizations.

Using DOCOMO's unique, highly advanced data-science technology will allow the JV to estimate impression data including viewer counts and characteristics in the local market. Vie BOARD will use the resulting metrics to streamline DOOH media planning, advertisement placement, impact measurement, and analysis.

In addition, Vie BOARD will further pioneer new DOOH opportunities and promote digitalization of impression-based DOOH advertisement placement in Vietnam, utilizing DatVietVAC's expertise in sales and strong relationships with local clients, advertising agencies and location owners.

In terms of specific roles, DOCOMO will propose methods to apply measurement techniques of DOOH business developed in Japan and provide impression data within Vietnam. DatVietVAC and DatVietOOH will provide expertise in managing DOOH operations locally, sales functions expertise, and facilitate relationship-building with clients and advertising agencies in support of business expansion and development.

DOCOMO has developed and implemented technology to measure advertising effectiveness based on non-specific location data*2, helping to digitally transform Japan's DOOH business. DOCOMO has also developed a unique technology for highly precise measurement of viewer counts and characteristics using international GPS data. In addition, the company has been actively pursuing opportunities for DOOH business expansion in overseas markets poised for significant growth.

Among the fast-growing Southeast Asia, Vietnam's DOOH market is poised for significant expansion due to accelerating smart-city initiatives and infrastructure development, including mass-transit railways. This growth is expected to significantly expand the DOOH market in Vietnam. Recognized for its data-science technology by DatVietVAC, DOCOMO has partnered to combine both assets, aiming to further expand Vietnam's DOOH market. This partnership has culminated in the agreement of the creation of the Vie BOARD, which will initiate DOOH business using data-science technology.
