Smart Outdoor Media Ltd, a frontrunner in the digital Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising sector, proudly announces its acquisition of a stake in Frisk Radio Ltd., a fast-growing commercial radio station in the North East.

This partnership heralds a new era of collaboration, poised to revolutionise the advertising landscape and offer unprecedented opportunities for brands to engage with their target audiences.
