CUIMC Events Digital Signage Policy

The CUIMC event office manages digital signage content in various locations throughout the CUIMC campus. The digital signage screens provide an opportunity for publicizing medical center events in a highly visible and engaging manner. Some screens run general event postings while others run student-focused event postings. 

Fees

  • There is a $125 fee (per week/per poster) for event postings submitted by CU or CUIMC departments, centers, or offices.  This fee covers the overall maintenance and management of the digital signage system. 
  • There is no fee associated for student event postings submitted by registered CU or CUIMC student organizations.
