BrightRoll Exchange Video Summitから探るDigital Video Advertisingの最新動向
The BrightRoll Exchange (BRX), the world’s largest video advertising exchange, hosted its biannual BRX Video Summit last week, drawing more than 200 professionals from across the digital advertising landscape to the Metropolitan Pavilion in New York on October 3. The Fall 2012 event featured keynotes and panel discussions from industry experts sharing insights into the trends and technologies shaping video advertising, and the power of ad exchanges to capture audiences and grow business.
BrightRoll CEO and founder Tod Sacerdoti set the tone for the half-day event, welcoming attendees and providing an overview of the digital video advertising ecosystem. Among topics discussed were the rapidly growing market for video ad exchanges (as seen by BRX, with a 231% YoY growth in global ads served), the industry’s shift toward programmatic buying and the overall growth of mobile, stating the majority of video ads globally would be mobile in 2-3 years.
Sacerdoti also shared his priorities for BRX in the coming year, including enhancements to the video ad exchange platform that provide greater transparency, measurement and optimization, targeting and integration, as well as a continued focus on real-time bidding (RTB) and mobile.
“Video has become an essential part of the online advertising mix, and advertisers are allocating more budget to digital media in order to reach audiences across the four screens — online, mobile, tablets and connected TVs,” said Sacerdoti. “BRX is making continuous improvements to the video ad exchange to support all major digital ad platforms, including mobile, which we are projecting close to 50% of our global inventory to be mobile by the end of 2012.”
