While it's easy to love the concept of fully automated buying and selling of ads, and the promise of huge ROI and transparent performance metrics, in reality adtech and programmatic has historically been a marketplace full of tricks and traps. In 2018, the industry is reaching a point of maturity. Data ethics, ad fraud and bad actors are right in the spotlight and new technologies and methods are promising more trustworthiness and better performance for those in the know. Join us as we traverse everything programmatic and adtech to bring you up to speed on the latest innovations, challenges, and opportunities.
