Unleashing the potential in data through geography

Presentation

The explosion of the data in the past 10 years should have led to a golden age of advertising and campaign effectiveness.  Instead, it’s led to us becoming bogged down in complexity, technicality and cost. 


Whilst the industry has been obsessed with identity as the key to unlocking the potential of data, it's been guilty of ignoring one of the most important and effective routes... geography.


Join us as we follow up on our talk from last year and discuss how geography can be applied to unleash the potential in data to drive growth and effectiveness across all aspects of advertising.

AI is the topic on the lips of the industry. It’s the pertinent subject shrouded in uncertainty and possibility – but should the media industry embrace AI with open arms, or do we need to take a more cautious approach?

E1- Gambling: A public health issue?

Hub Case Study

Harm from gambling can affect anyone, and it can impact all aspects of people’s lives, from finances and relationships to physical and mental health.

Over half of people experiencing problems with gambling say that they can’t escape adverts about gambling (55%) and that these adverts make it hard for them to reduce their gambling (54%).

In an environment dominated by gambling advertising, why has this become an industry-wide and public health issue?

This session will explore:

  • What can gambling brands, media owners and sporting bodies do to communicate more clearly that gambling can be addictive?
  • How can impactful, risk-taking marketing prevent harm and protect those most at risk?
  • In the absence of stricter regulation, how can charities and government bodies ensure cut through of safer gambling messaging in an environment dominated by large, big-budget gambling brands?
  • How does GB compare to the rest of the world when it comes to gambling advertising and marketing?
  • What more can be done on marketing legislation to highlight the risks of gambling and promote the support available?

Hub

As the gaming landscape has evolved, so too have the behaviours and motivations of those who play. Gaming audiences are more diverse and nuanced than ever, playing across a variety of platforms, genres, and titles, and interacting with media in a multitude of ways.
