1. Technology overview
Broadsign is a Montreal-based out-of-home advertising technology company founded in 2003, starting with a digital signage content management system. It serves media owners, buyers and retailers who want to run and sell screen advertising.
For retailers, the platform adds in-store advertising to a retail media network. It combines a DOOH ad server, a programmatic supply-side platform and content and network management, with campaign planning, real-time availability and reporting. In April 2026 JB Hi-Fi adopted it for a network covering more than 200 stores.
