Anthony O’Neill
The Video Ad Agency

Connected TV allows marketers to tap into the power of streaming platforms like ITVX, Channel 4, Amazon Prime and Disney+ to reach modern audiences at a fraction of the costs associated with prime time ads. This session is ideal for marketing professionals curious about the next evolution in video advertising.
