Convicted
« In a judgment handed down on August 28, 2024, the Paris correctional court convicted the company URBAN ACT and its director of the offenses of placing advertising that did not comply with local advertising regulations or that was unlawfully placed on a remarkable heritage site or on listed buildings, from June 2017 to June 2021. The company was sentenced to a maximum fine of 3,500 euros. A financial penalty was also imposed on its director. The court handed down these penalties in view of the multiple warnings issued by the administrative authorities, which URBAN ACT failed to act upon, demonstrating its disregard for regulations governing advertising in the public space. The court ordered the publication of this sentence as an additional penalty.»
Pour la sortie du nouvel opus de Sharknado par SYFY, un dispositif de street marketing aussi délirant que ce film a été mis en place à Paris. Des mises en situations assez anormales signalant un danger imminent venant du ciel et prenant la forme d’un requin.
Les pancartes board ainsi qu’un individu menacé par un requin viendront annoncer l’actualité de Sharknado 4 diffusé sur Syfy. Un public exposé à cette opération souvent particulièrement surpris dont le premier réflexe sera de prendre en photo l’instant et de le partager.
Un nouveau dispositif de street marketing bénéficiant d’un potentiel de viralité certain.
A very specific profession, strong customer expectations and local know-how that is not always mastered
or up to the stakes, have prompted advertisers to seek Urban Act and its expertise beyond its borders.
