The IAB Europe Using Data Effectively in Programmatic White Paper (first published in November 2016) has been updated to reflect the changing nature of the European data landscape. This updated version includes revised content with an additional section covering GDPR considerations and new case studies.
Ben Geach (Global Product Strategy Director at Oracle Data Cloud) led the white paper update with input from Thomas Park (Senior Product Director, Advertising Products at Adform) and Chris Hartsuiker (Manager, Privacy and Public Policy at IAB Europe).
Ben commented:
“Updating this white paper has been necessary in light of the changing data landscape within Europe. It’s critical the ecosystem is well educated about how to use data for their success criteria - both knowing when to use different data types and when not to. We're on a journey to becoming a more data literate industry, to really understand the value captured in data. This market-wide renaissance will create a space for more impactful insights than ever before. The white paper acts as a practical guide to achieve this.”

Brussels, 17 July 2018 – The draft Code of Practice on Disinformation, drawn up by IAB Europe alongside other stakeholders from online advertising and platforms sectors[1], was presented today at the meeting of the Multi-stakeholder Forum on Disinformation. European Commissioner Mariya Gabriel (Digital Economy and Society) participated in the meeting and welcomed the inclusive and constructive process that led to the first iteration of the Code.
The draft Code was developed by a Working Group designated by DG CONNECT in the context of the Multi-stakeholder Forum on Disinformation (‘Forum’), of which the Working Group is part. IAB Europe is a member of the Working Group.
The draft Code will now be reviewed by the advisory group of stakeholders within the Forum, the Sounding Board, whose feedback is expected during September[2].
The Forum was formed upon the recommendation deriving from the Commission’s Communication on tackling online disinformation published in April 2018, building on the work of the High-Level Expert Group on Fake News and Disinformation convened by DG CONNECT in January 2018.
“The legitimate online ecosystem provides an infrastructure that can be misused by bad actors to deceive and confuse citizens, making it more difficult for them to make fact-based judgments, and ultimately undermining our democracies,” said Townsend Feehan, IAB Europe CEO. “The same ecosystem is also a powerful platform for the democratic dissemination of information and views. All stakeholders need to work together to reduce the opportunities for misuse. We are pleased to have had the opportunity to participate in this exercise under the leadership of DG CONNECT.”
Though all manifestations of online disinformation do not leverage, or relate to, advertising, it is important to acknowledge the real-life scenarios where digital advertising may facilitate the creation and propagation of disinformation, for example, by inadvertently enabling the placing of legitimate advertising on websites enabling disinformation. “IAB Europe members are committed to continuing to invest in brand safety tools that reduce or eliminate such ad misplacement, because it is the right thing to do and is in the best interest of the brands involved”, said Feehan.
IAB Europe encourages continued EU-level investment in research to better understand the scope and nature of online disinformation, and in consumer education, notably in the area of media literacy, to increase people’s ability critically to assess information they receive.
We are looking forward to hearing the Sounding Board’s views on the draft Code, and to continuing to collaborate with others across the ecosystem on this major challenge.

In association with IAB Europe, Xaxis conducted a pan-European survey to understand the current and future impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on digital advertising. The results of this survey are published in this report.
The survey sought the views of 1,000+ decision makers across the industry including advertisers, agencies, publishers, and intermediaries.
The report identified that decision makers from all parts of the industry recognise the significant value AI can bring to achieve results across the digital advertising ecosystem.
Many respondents agreed with the statement that ‘AI will be the next industrial revolution’, with the potential to deliver instrumental change in the digital advertising industry.
However, there is work to do in terms of reliability and trust; respondents highlighted the key concerns facing AI in digital advertising as relying less on human control, and the ability to gain trustworthy insights. It’s about maintaining a positive and productive balance between AI, a human workforce, and end customers, the study found.

Townsend Feehan, CEO of IAB Europe said: “A thriving digital ecosystem depends on advertising powered by innovation, creativity and efficiency. We are pleased to have worked with Xaxis on this research which highlights that the application of Artificial Intelligence in digital advertising can deliver better targeting, optimisation and business growth.”
John Wittesaele, President EMEA, Xaxis said: “The most powerful, and largely unfulfilled, potential of AI lies in the bigger picture, in its ability to optimise towards business outcomes rather than simple metrics."
