Digital media is widely used by brands today, spending a vast US$284bn* per annum globally and growing.
Campaign Managers at media agencies spend many hours analyzing third-party cookie-driven data to select the appropriate media inventory for big brand advertisers, spending millions of dollars buying impressions in bulk. It’s a competitive business, yet the one thing all these bids have in common is the buy-side decisioning intelligence they are using.

There aren’t many other industries staring down a future as uncertain as telcos. A stagnant growth and a global downturn on the horizon, Telcos are struggling to keep customers without having to resort to the obvious, giving more data and voice minutes for a cheaper price.
