Debate #1 will be followed by Debate #2: Agency and Client Relationships – more details to follow on that next week. Stay tuned.
Among the mooted proposals for Debate #1 include: industry scorecards for publishers based on their approach to brand safety and ad fraud; the adoption of one viewability standard and the bold move of utilising blockchain for digital advertising.
