Walmart to Bring New 'Walmart Smart Network' to 2700 Stores

In a live event, simulcast between New York City and Bentonville, Arkansas, Walmart executives today unveiled the new Walmart Smart Network that will provide shoppers relevant and useful information via in-store TV. The first "shopper-intelligent network at retail" is the result of two years and $10 million in research and development used to identify the optimal locations, applications and programming for reaching the millions of consumers who visit the retailer's stores each week.
