Never before have we had so much access to content.  Social media has lowered the barriers of entry for content creators, while the increase in streaming services and broadcaster-on-demand platforms have pushed the bar higher and higher for the standard of content.  But how much choice is too much? 

We’re joined by Alexandra Ong, Senior Data Stratagey Manager, Advanced Ads at Warner Brothers Discovery to get her take on how choice is changing the future of advertising.

DSP, SSP, CPM, CPC, PMP, CPV…WTF? It’s no secret that the programmatic world is complex, but we’re on a mission to simplify it.  This week, Paul Gubbins, VP CTV Strategy at Publica stops by to share his opinion on how to navigate the acronyms.  We put his communication skills to the test by introducing the ‘dining table test’ asking Paul to describe what he does without the use of some of the most common bits of industry jargon.  Do you think he can do it?

Welcome to the first ever episode of The Programmatic Life, the podcast that meets the talent behind the ad tech! We jump straight in with one of the biggest topics, not just in our industry but around the world – diversity.  Earlier this year, Demi Abiola, Business Director at mSix stopped by the studio to share his personal experiences on diversity throughout his career.  This episode discusses the ‘Media For All’ report, the difference between perception and action, and we ask Demi what he would consign to Ad Tech’s Room 101 and banish forever. 

 Thanks go to our friends, the Women in Programmatic Network, for sponsoring this episode and driving positive change across the digital industry.
