The much-touted re-emergence of dealmaking in ad tech is slowly appearing, with much of the activity taking place between strategic players. The latest episode in this trend is Digital Content Next, a non-profit aimed at promoting the interests of online publishers, offloading its ad tech arm TRUSTX to Symitri following months of strategic deliberations. Symitri announced it has closed on...
Major game publishers’ flirtation with in-game ads has yet to blossom into a full romance in 2024 — but the question of advertising has become nearly impossible for them to avoid, as shown by Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson’s endorsement of the revenue stream during the company’s earnings call earlier this month. “Our expectation is that advertising has an opportunity to be a meaningful...
