Wayfair, a leading online destination for furniture, home furnishings, décor, and goods, sought to turbo-charge the performance of its digital marketing campaigns. With an emphasis on continually optimizing its supply chains, Wayfair is laser focused on developing and deploying proprietary algorithms and data science-driven models across its business, from digital advertising to order fulfillment and delivery.
To meet its sophisticated digital advertising objectives, Wayfair chose AppNexus. With the AppNexus Programmable Bidder (APB), Wayfair built brand-customized buying algorithms that drive increased advertising effectiveness and return on ad spend.

For Bannerconnect, executing sophisticated segmentation strategies often leads to complexity in one of two ways: buyers either need to juggle multiple micro-targeted campaigns themselves, or they must work with an array ad tech partners in order to achieve their goals.
Bannerconnect sought a more cost-effective way to employ highly sophisticated targeting and bidding techniques in order to achieve its automotive brand client’s direct response campaign objectives.
Bannerconnect also wanted to avoid working with a “black box” bidder, which lacks transparency and doesn’t allow clients to exert control over how their data is used, or how bidding decisions are made.
Bannerconnect tested the AppNexus Programmable Bidder (APB) to see if it could extract additional value by deploying customized bid strategies in a leading automotive brand’s campaign. The campaign performance objective was to reach viewers who had previously viewed vehicle models on the company’s website.

With header bidding now confirmed as the most disruptive and innovative technology in ad tech in recent years, and with almost 70% of publishers using it as part of their monetisation strategy, the panel will review the most important lessons we’ve learnt from the rise of the technology over the last eighteen months. We will discuss how it has impacted publisher’s monetisation strategies, how and if, as a result, they allocate sales resources and inventory differently, as well as best practices for achieving maximum yield and managing multiple header tags through the use of containers.
The panel will also address what’s next in header bidding as the technology is applied to mobile and video. Is it as simple as mirroring its use on desktop or are there specifics to the mobile environment? And finally, the conversation will touch on the evolution of header bidding. Does Google offering Enhanced Dynamic Allocation change anything? Is the best use of the technology for it to stay on the browser side, or is the server-to-server connection the way forward. What problems would that solve and is it scalable? Join our executives and guests for this exclusive dmexco workshop.

DIGIDAY spoke to IAB Europe CEO Townsend Feehan ahead of her appearance at Digiday’s Publishing Summit Europe in October, where she plans to help raise awareness of some of the far-fetched and potentially damaging ideas that are being discussed in Brussels related to data protection. The interview can be read in its entirety here.
Brussels, 1 September 2016 – IAB Europe welcomes guidance published by EU telecom regulators on Tuesday confirming that network-level ad blocking is a violation of EU rules on net neutrality. “This official clarification aligns to what any sensible person would consider to be intuitively correct”, said Allan Sørensen, IAB Europe Policy Committee Chairman.
Under EU rules, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) may not block, slow down, alter, restrict, interfere with, degrade or discriminate when providing an internet access service. In their report, the regulators specifically state that this prohibition applies also to advertising.
“Hopefully the timing of the guidance, coming as it does when network-level ad blocking remains limited to isolated cases in sub-regions of the EU, will nip the problem in the bud. Consumers have the right not to receive online advertising if they choose not to, and to compensate publishers and providers of other online services in some other way. But the imposition of network-level blocking would have nefarious medium- to long-term consequences for European media and Europe’s digital economy.”

Search is an integral part of our everyday life. The devices and technology used to access it are evolving with unprecedented speed: Mobile technology increasingly dictates the way that people search for information. Consumers are able to buy directly on a search results page or through ‘buy’ buttons. Additionally, search is happening in different places rather than just on the search results page now. Technology giants like Microsoft, Google and Apple are focusing on new ways machine-based learning, A.I. and bots can analyze data. Today's digital assistants are already voice-search enabled and growing smarter with every interaction.
Obviously search is a huge business and central part of the marketing landscape. Hence, it's essential for marketers to understand and adapt to these new technologies to build immersive customer experiences. Consumer engagement with brands will reach the next evolution, with deep-linking and intelligent agents being integrated into apps and products. Let's take a look into the crystal ball with Microsoft's search guru Rik van der Kooi to see the key trends currently affecting the direction of search and the changes the future may hold for us in 2016 and beyond!

Unless you’ve been living under a Poké Ball the last several weeks, you’ve undoubtedly heard of the new app-based game and overnight sensation Pokémon GO. As one of the first location-based augmented reality games, Pokémon GO mimics your actual “real world” surroundings using a Google Maps-like interface as you seek to find and capture Pokémon characters.
The app was released in early July, and in its first full month of reporting, data from comScore Mobile Metrix® showed that it ranked as the 9th largest mobile app in the UK with 9.5 million unique visitors across smartphone and tablet. This represents 30% of the total mobile app population, even edging out a couple of social media heavyweights for the month.
For as long as comScore has been measuring digital audiences, there really isn’t even a remotely comparable instance of a website or app capturing such a large audience in such a short period of time. Perhaps even more impressive for Pokémon GO is the high level of engagement it’s seeing. In its first month, the app also ranked 5th in total app time spent, behind only Facebook, Google, BBC Sites and Apple Inc. In addition, well over a quarter of its user base visited on a daily basis, suggesting that its audience was highly engaged with the app throughout the month and doesn’t just represent a bunch of curious lurkers.
Pokémon GO is just the latest app to capture the public’s attention in what remains a very vibrant ecosystem. For more insights on the mobile app landscape and its fast risers, visit comScore's insights page.

The European Commission is pushing hard on its Digital Single Market agenda, with new legislative or policy proposals emerging virtually every week.
