Join Impossible Foods and Blis as we discuss the upcoming changes to cookies and IDFAs from a brand and partner POV, and what exactly this will mean for marketers’ beloved bottom line.

- What your peers are saying about the impending changes, and what's keeping them up at night

- The pros and cons of the top solutions being thrown into the ring as IDFA and cookie replacements, and why you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket

TV audiences are migrating toward content and services found more frequently over the internet rather than traditional TV. What does this mean for advertisers? More ways to connect with customers through the biggest screen in the house, for one thing. But without the right data for planning, optimization and measurement, all the additional inventory in the world is meaningless.

Striking the right balance across all forms of TV and digital is paramount. Yet finding unduplicated reach in the fragmented TV landscape is increasingly challenging. And with pressure to demonstrate the efficacy of TV ads on driving outcomes; brands are too often asking which is more important: reach, or results? The good news is, it’s no longer an either / or world. Today’s advanced advertising tools, robust TV audience data, and addressable inventory are pillars of success for maximizing both reach and outcomes.

Join Raghu Kodige, Chief Product Officer at LG Ads, as he discusses best practices for combining granular TV and addressable inventory for cross-screen campaign success, and demonstrates the tools and technologies that are revolutionizing TV media.
