Conversations, Insights and Inspiration on Convergent TV

Over the last few years, the definition of “television” has blurred, with viewers seamlessly viewing linear TV and streaming programming across a growing number of platforms. For marketers trying to amass scale and capture viewer engagement in a fragmented landscape, this new converged reality holds great opportunity. 

To help understand the trends shaping the growth of convergent TV, as well as the opportunities with it, we have created VAB Convergent TV Week. We brought you complimentary insights content, webinars and other resources to help you plan, buy, and measure successfully in a converged TV world.

how to best measure converged tv campaigns

WEBINAR: Mastering the Mix: Advertising in the Age of Converged TV

Viewer fragmentation – across time, platforms and devices – can be overwhelming for advertisers trying to reach their total TV audience. But in this age of converged TV, cross-platform measurement and data have opened the door to better ways of finding, reaching and impactfully engaging with audiences “where they are.” Today, advertisers, across categories, are solving for fragmentation by leveraging data and technology to get a unified view of both advertising and audiences. Join Innovid and Drizly's Peter Tardif as they share a marketer’s perspectives on measuring successful Convergent TV campaigns! We’ll answer the questions marketers and measurement companies most want to know:

  • How are ad delivery, creative personalization and measurement connected, and why is it important?
  • How can marketers achieve consistent metrics across all TV-enabled platforms regardless of how ads are delivered?
  • How is the cross-platform TV ecosystem need for more consistent metrics and greater transparency resulting in a shift towards multiple currencies? 
  • How are marketers thinking of budgeting synchronized linear and streaming plans in a Converged TV world?
