ANA Emerging Tech ‘First Look’ – SWYM – LEVERAGING AUTOMATION & AI. HOW BRANDS CAN ‘STACK THE DECK’ TO WIN BIG IN DIGITAL MEDIA

In digital media today, brands bid and buy ad impressions under four major constraints: 1) At any given moment, only a subset of media supply is made available to buyers; 2) Buyers can only bid on the subset made available for sale; 3) Much of the supply is filled with fraud, junk, and costly middlemen; 4) Traditionally, every dollar planned must be spent, whether or not there's anything worth buying. Given these constraints, it’s no surprise brands have major issues with the media supply chain. What if instead, you could change the game and ‘stack the deck’ so you could bid and win a disproportionate amount of top-performing inventory. Dr. Rona will explain these dynamics and show how a new platform, SWYM, is leveraging automation and AI to make it happen.
