Two of the main DS operators have been placed under the protection of the court (Chapter 11) facing financial troubles. One is Novax, the first supplyer of drugstores in France; the second is Cyber Vitrine, which bought Jidea two years ago. Judgements of courts for both companies are officials since last april.

Those news, concomitants the same month, get a reputation as a bird of ill omen for the digital signage market in France.
