What Intersection does
Intersection operates a hybrid media-and-infrastructure model. It deploys and manages digital display assets in high-footfall public spaces, often through municipal, transit or venue partnerships, then monetises those assets by selling advertising inventory to brands and agencies. The company creates value by pairing physical urban presence with digital screen management, audience delivery, public utility functions such as wayfinding and messaging, and programmatic buying access.
Category differentiation
Intersection is not a pure adtech software vendor or DSP. It is primarily a media owner and urban display operator that monetises physical OOH and DOOH inventory, with programmatic access enabled through partners.
Strategic context
AI-supported assessment from the existing company research; distinguish interpretation from sourced facts.
Intersection is a US out-of-home media and technology company focused on advertising and digital display infrastructure in transit systems, city streets and other urban public environments. The business was formed through the merger of Titan and Control Group and now combines media sales, screen network operations and public-information display products. Its core customers are national and local advertisers, media agencies, transit authorities, city operators and public-space partners. The company makes money primarily by selling digital and static advertising inventory across owned or operated urban media assets, including large-format street-level and transit-based networks such as LinkNYC. It also supports programmatic access to that inventory through DSP integrations via Place Exchange, while using infrastructure partnerships with cities and transit entities to secure long-term rights to deploy screens and monetise audience attention.
Company news briefing
Briefing updated:
Intersection has expanded its creator network with six new voices and strengthened its experiential division, IRLX, under the sales leadership of KJ O’Connell. The company has simultaneously broadened its digital out-of-home footprint by reaching 50 screens on Chicago’s Divvy bikeshare network and leveraging LinkNYC kiosks to livestream World Cup matches with linear television advertisements. These developments underscore Intersection's ongoing scaling of integrated urban media platforms and experiential offerings.
Business model & monetisation
Revenue comes chiefly from direct sales of OOH and DOOH inventory, priced around location quality, audience reach, impressions and campaign duration. A secondary revenue stream comes from programmatic DOOH transactions through DSP integrations via Place Exchange. The company also monetises through infrastructure and partner arrangements with cities, transit systems and public venues, likely including revenue-sharing, concession-style rights or managed deployment economics tied to advertising income.

LinkNYC Kiosks Stream World Cup With TV Ads
Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) · Recorded impact score: 2/5
LinkNYC digital kiosks in New York City have begun livestreaming weekly World Cup matches (Telemundo) on a subset of screens, carrying the same HLS broadcast feed and linear TV ads shown in-home. Intersection, which manages LinkNYC content and marketing, enabled the streams after the Mayor’s Office secured broadcast rights; Boldyn manages the WiFi infrastructure. About 200 of roughly 4,000 kiosks are showing matches while the remainder continue normal DOOH ad rotations. Intersection uses third-party vendors like Geopath for audience profiling and sells DOOH inventory based on impressions, using dayparting and contextual targeting rather than household-level targeting.
- LinkNYC kiosks are livestreaming weekly World Cup matches from Telemundo every Friday through the finals on July 19, 2026.
- The streams use an HLS feed from the broadcaster and run the same ads that air on linear TV.
