IAB UK

Our CEO reflects on a huge year for IAB UK and our members, from uniting the industry at events like #Engage and #LeadershipSummit, to achieving real policy progress with Government and regulators 👇

🗣️ We’ve been lobbying for ad and audience measurement to be exempt from consent requirements in the Data Bill so that cookies can be used for this purpose without consumers having to opt in first. This week, Lords Lucas and Lord Clement-Jones backed our call, urging the Government to act. Government officials have said that they recognise this issue and will engage with the IAB and our members with the potential to create an exemption for this purpose in future.  Learn more here 🔗 https://lnkd.in/enpn2Vf8 #DigitalAdvertising #AdMeasurement #Government

December's Joy of Digital Award goes to Waitrose & Partners for its festive Sweet Suspicion campaign! 🎄🔍 Waitrose's whodunnit captivated the nation with its interactive mystery and captivated our Chief Digital Cheerleader, Joy T.B., too. “This wasn’t just an ad - it was a full-blown event. People turned into pudding detectives, rocked ‘whodunnit’ t-shirts in-store and flooded social media with theories worthy of a true crime podcast. Who knew a missing red velvet dessert could cause more drama than a family Monopoly game?!" ✨ Congratulations to Waitrose & Partners and Saatchi & Saatchi for bringing the festive cheer 🎉 Learn more about the campaign here 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eucc5Bez #TheJoyOfDigital #Christmas #ChristmasCampaign #DigitalMarketing #Advertising
