Conference Highlights:
- More and more big brands are embracing real time buying as part of their digital strategy. As a result, more branding dollars are coming into the space.
- 2013 will be a huge year for RTB in general, with significant incremental dollars being spent in the space.
- Facebook’s FBX exchange is a clear game changer, introducing significant incremental supply in an instant.
- Companies playing in the real time buying space need to be making more investments in understanding audiences and users rather than focusing on just scale.
- Private exchanges have a long way to go, and until much of the friction in this area is removed growth will be stagnant at best.
- If you are playing in the real time buying space it’s critical for your organization to have a ‘real time culture’, essentially understanding the dynamic nature and speed in which operations need to flow.
