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. 

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.

Please note: Posters on easels are no longer permitted in any of the aforementioned lobbies; however, event posters containing program, schedule, and instructions for participants will be permitted on the day of the event only. They must be removed immediately following the event.

Digital Signage Suitable for Posting

Suitable event signagage include all those that are either sponsored or co-sponsored by a CUIMC or CU department, center, office, or (for student signage) a registered student organization.
