- Phil Cohen, President & CEO, Care Media Holdings

It’s a really diverse, talented mix of industry experts who want to provide a unified approach and voice to the industry. This is a good step in the right direction, politics aside, for the digital signage industry to advance consistently and credibly. I look at it as a big positive.
