AdMonsters Meetup: Putting First-Party Data Into Action

Putting First-Party Data Into Action

5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Publisher first-party data is universally considered to be the most valuable data on the Internet. However, actually mining the value of that data and turning them into a revenue-driving workhorse is easier said than done, especially on a multi-platform basis. During this Meetup, publishers will discuss how they’re porting first-party data into services. They will dive into best practices and processes for all publishers, including tools such as audience extension, artificial intelligence and data management, and the best allocation of human resources.

A Meetup is an informal gathering where digital revenue strategists can network with their peers and join a moderated discussion on a pertinent ad tech topic – consider it a mini-AdMonsters event that's free to attend. Learn how companies like yours are working through challenges and driving revenue while connecting with industry folks you already know or are just meeting. (Who knows? You may find a new bestie!)
