This September, IAB Europe will be hosting a series of virtual events to discuss and debate trust and transparency in the digital advertising industry. A lack of transparency and accountability will cause notable friction in any value chain, especially in digital advertising. Our series of events will discuss what’s currently being done and what else needs to be done to ensure a sustainable future.
In our headline event, The Great Debate, we will address best practices, and current initiatives to drive trust and transparency in our industry. Through a series of keynote presentations and panel discussions, industry experts will share their views on what’s being done and what else needs to be done to drive trust and transparency in digital advertising today.
