Panel:
Monday, March 18, 2013 @ 3:30 – 4:00 p.m. PT
Hilton Union Square, San Francisco, CA
Panel description: In order for automated platforms to move to the next level of market penetration and brand adoption, there are persistent problems waiting for solutions. Inventory quality continues to struggle against its reputation as a bargain basement of remnants. The value chain is so complex and multi-layered that too many players take too much of the price, often escalating a publisher-s true cost of sale. And many media brands, the holders of the best inventory and user data, remain suspicious of the entire RTB and data re-selling enterprise. Industry pundits and metrics providers promise that a new “viewable impression” metric will bring welcome scarcity, trust and price support into the ecosystem, but disagreement remains over its implementation and real effect. Despite the velocity of RTB growth, the marketplace has critical hurdles to vault in order to convince the core constituencies, brands and publishers, that RTB really is ready for prime time.
