AcuityAds Officially Launches Decision Technology Platform in Spain and Latin America
TORONTO, June 4, 2019 /CNW/ - AcuityAds Holdings Inc. ("AcuityAds" or the "Company") (TSXV:AT), a technology leader that provides targeted digital media solutions enabling advertisers to connect intelligently with audiences across digital advertising campaigns, is pleased to announce that it will officially launch its flagship advertising platform to clients in Spain and Latin America.
The Company completed the acquisition of ADman Media on June 15, 2018 referencing expansion into global markets, positioning itself as the premier advertising platform for brands seeking to reach Spanish-speaking audiences. After an extensive training period, all ADman employee's will be adopting the AcuityAds brand name and providing clients with access to AcuityAds' full technology stack.
"It has taken us the past year to prepare for our platform launch in Spain and Latin America," said Seraj Bharwani, Chief Strategy Officer at AcuityAds. "Given GDPR requirements for consumer privacy and data usage, we have thoroughly assessed our audience targeting capabilities before offering it to advertisers in this region."
While the Company began major efforts to engage existing ADman customers across Latin America earlier this year, the past week marked an important kickoff for the entire group, including Spain and all Latin America countries.
"Use of decision science technology with live, real-time, consumer propensity data and unique measurement capabilities will bring significant incremental impact and efficiency to advertisers in the Hispanic regions," Bharwani continued.
The Acuity Decision Science Technology is an end-to-end solution for branding and performance that revolutionizes real-time matching of consumer propensity for attention and conversion with high-quality inventory across devices and formats on the OPEN WEB. Performance measurement and attribution is an integral part of the platform with proprietary metrics and audience behaviors updated every 60 seconds.
Acuity's proprietary True Reach™ measurement platform includes the most comprehensive, video-viewership performance metric, combining both paid and earned media. The platform includes accountability for Share of Voice and Share of Attention™ as measures of a brand's share of total reach, viewing time, and engagement relative to competitive brands in over 250 vertical industry categories.
The True Reach™ Insights platform was launched in 2007 and includes persistent tracking on over 500 million video advertisements and over 7,000 global and regional brands promoting video-ads across a wide range of online publishers including Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
Josep Tribo, AcuityAds Senior Vice President of Spain and Latin American markets commented, "ADman Media employees have undergone a significant onboarding program to the Acuity technologies and are extremely happy to be unified under a single brand with the AcuityAds family. We remain confident that ADman client relationships in Spanish-speaking markets worldwide will benefit immensely from our innovative platform and expanded capabilities."
