Have We Reached a Tipping Point in Online Video Advertising?

Today, audiences can watch videos whenever and wherever they want through limitless services and channels. To reach them, advertisers are working with programmatic buying software and exchanges to automate their online ad initiatives, partnering with traditional ad networks to gain access across channels, and bidding on content at Upfronts. With all the disparate paths, it has become a logistical nightmare to get advertisers’ messages on every screen in every home. OneScreen created the Media Graph to make the business of video manageable again for all stakeholders. With one Media Graph account, exchanges, ad networks, agencies and advertisers can manage all of their digital video advertising initiatives, find new partners to access more inventory, and tap into rich advertising capabilities that offer true engagement. The Media Graph is empowering the industry to get the work of video done.

Videology showcases new research and case study results from leading brands who are using this technology to drive their digital strategies and improve ROI.
