Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • On September 24, 2026, Intersection expanded LinkNYC’s creator network with six new voices.
  • On August 18, 2026, Intersection hit 50 Divvy screens, expanding Chicago impressions and reach.
  • On June 24, 2026, SEPTA granted Intersection a nine-year advertising extension, locking revenue.

What critics are saying

  • New York City controls LinkNYC renewals; political backlash can erase core revenue.
  • Google, TikTok, and programmatic DOOH rivals squeeze pricing, attention, and sales efficiency.
  • If city contracts shrink by 2028, Intersection’s asset-heavy model loses scale and relevance.

What makes Intersection unique

  • LinkNYC reaches 91% of New Yorkers monthly across nearly 4,000 screens.
  • Intersection bundles advertising, free Wi-Fi, wayfinding, and city services inside public infrastructure.
  • IRLX and Divvy extend its city-owned inventory from New York into Chicago and Los Angeles.
