When this podcast was launched back in 2018, one of the biggest reasons was to share knowledge and highlight diversity.

Myles Younger joined us in our weekly community call, aka the Programmatic Meetup. In this episode, Myles talks about data privacy, data clean rooms, and identity from definition to hot takes. At the latter part of the episode, some of our ninjas had the chance to ask questions directly to Myles and discuss as a group. Truly a wonderful opportunity and experience!

22 Sep 2021 | 52. Can CTV and OTT Be Considered As A Performance Channel | 00:33:17 | |
This week we have Dan Larkman, who is the CEO and Founder of Keynes Digital. Keynes Digital is a full-service programmatic agency that is based in Austin, TX. This week we focused on the topic of ConnectedTV and OTT media service and how it can be considered as a performance channel. Dan explains how CTV can be used as a way to track users through conversions on multiple devices. We later discuss the ways the iOS 14.5 update has impacted ad revenue on platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. With the restriction of the iOS 14.5 update, we now have to use another way to target those users that were lost, one way is through CTV which gives us the ability to reach those users through their other devices by using different targeted messaging. We wrapped up the segment by discussing the constant challenges between the marketing and creative team when it comes to messaging and connecting with the end-users.

We had a LinkedIn Live Series a couple of weeks ago where we live-streamed the podcast interview on the Host’s LinkedIn profile.

Shiv goes in-depth on the ways self-development and educating your team on an ongoing and continuous level is more impactful to longevity. He also touches on some ways U of Digital pushes through training decline and gives ways on how they move forward past those setbacks.
