TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwired) — 03/09/15 — iSIGN Media Solutions Inc. (“iSIGN” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE: ISD)(OTCQX: ISDSF), a leading provider of interactive mobile advertising solutions that serves advertisers, manufacturers, retailers and advertising agencies throughout North America, announced today that it has closed an agreement with Chameleon Digital Media (“Chameleon”) (a division of Adapt Media Inc.) to install 100 Smart Antennas into various pubs and bars in the downtown Toronto area.
The initial placement will be in the Wheat Sheaf Tavern – Toronto–s oldest inn, operating since 1848, which will be broadcasting by late March. It–ll become the first tavern in Canada to communicate with current and prospective patrons via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, utilizing iSIGN–s patented technology.
Chameleon will be responsible for the creation, contracting, and advertising sale, of Toronto–s first Mobile Bar Network.
After the initial bar and restaurant launch, Toronto will have its own –mini– version of the National Mobile Network–originating from the United States, expanded into other channels and other markets.
“We are extremely excited to launch this amazing technology and witness how patrons will react and interact with one of their oldest establishments,” stated Mr. Jamie Thompson, Chameleon–s President. “It–s a modern progression to a heritage Toronto landmark–our thanks to the Wheat Sheaf for being our test partner in Downtown Toronto!”
“Our distributor, Graphic Media, Inc. and their advertising sales arm, Engage Mobile Media Solutions, LLC, have successfully demonstrated that the National Mobile Network business model is a success,” said Mr. Alex Romanov, iSIGN–s Chief Executive Officer. “Its success has influenced the beginnings of a expanded advertising to mobile network in Canada.”
