Detroit, Mich.– November 17, 2009 – — NEC Display Solutions of America enlisted Campbell-Ewald's expertise to help develop its newest product, VUKUNET, an innovative web-based platform that connects digital signage network owners to a whole new world of potential advertising revenue and also provides advertisers and ad agencies a revolutionary way to leverage digital out-of-home advertising.

NEC Display Solutions engaged Campbell-Ewald thirteen months ago to help bring the VUKUNET vision to life. Working with the forward-thinking NEC team, Campbell-Ewald contributed its ad industry insights and user experiences to VUKUNET's design and development. From there, the teams collaborated on identity development, including product name and logo design, as well as product launch strategy and execution.

"We feel extremely fortunate to have worked with Campbell-Ewald on the development of VUKUNET. Their knowledge was invaluable in designing this groundbreaking platform for digital place-based media," said Pierre Richer, President and COO at NEC Display Solutions. "They brought their ad industry knowledge to help us design a revolutionary ad-serving tool that will connect all digital network owners with potential advertisers."

"NEC is changing the digital out-of-home space," said Candace Graham, Campbell-Ewald Executive Vice President, Account and Digital Director, who spearheaded the VUKUNET efforts at Campbell-Ewald. She previously partnered with NEC on a Website project ten years ago. "It was very exciting to be immersed with them in the entire product development process -- from design to launch."

NEC developed the innovative VUKUNET platform to connect digital signage network owners (airports, retailers, hospitals, etc.) with advertisers. For network owners, the automated technology enables advertising inventory management, proof-of-performance reporting and payment consolidation for the ads. For advertisers and ad agencies, who formerly had to contact hundreds of potential network owners to determine rates and availability, the companion ADVUKU ad-serving platform enables easy searching for optimal networks in any location.

NEC Display Solutions announced the widespread availability of VUKUNET on November 10, 2009. For more information, visit www.vukunet.com.
