Ad Tech &Programmatic Newsletter – July 9th 2021

Welcome to this week’s edition of The Yieldbird Digest!

Following the seismic news about the postponement of 3rd party cookies, we are entering into a summer holiday downtime. But there are still interesting happenings taking place in the industry. For example, Magnite has just acquired SpringServe, an ad serving platform for CTV, and, announced this week, The Trade Desk is set to limit number of streaming service ads with new product – Solimar. What is more, Quantcast has appointed a new privacy director.

During the holiday season, Publishers also are also having to get to grips with the migration to MCM (because Google is not likely to want to extend the deadline anymore). We have prepared a number of guidelines in order to help you carry out this task.

Last but not least, we are delighted to announce that AdExchanger has included Yieldbird on its list of laureates for Programmatic Power Players 2021. An industry distinction from a company that we hold in such high regard is always a cause for celebration!

Thank you for your continued support.

Good reading!
