IAB IRELAND MEMBERS PREPARE FOR VIEWABLE IMPRESSION TRADING

The background to the VI Briefing held on the 26th of February 2015 in Dublin.

Given the global focus on Viewable Impression (VI) definition and VI measurement IAB Ireland’s Display Council recently conducted a readiness survey IAB members. The goal was to gauge the understanding and usage of Viewable Impressions in the Irish market.

The results showed that VI is indeed gaining traction in the Irish market.

Key Findings:

45% of respondents recognized the global IAB definition of VI: 50% of an advertisement in view for a minimum of one second

66% said their own company was ready/somewhat ready to trade in VI

73% felt that their agency was somewhat ready/ready to trade in VI

A number of vendors are now actively providing VI measurement tools in the Irish market. Advertisers are beginning to adopt VI as a both a performance and trading metric in respect of digital advertising.

As VI tracking and trading swiftly develops in our market, it is important that reasonable expectations should be set in monitoring viewable impressions due to technological challenges. It should also be noted that non-measured impressions do not equal impressions that are not viewable

Respondents to IAB’s VI study indicated a high level of interest for an IAB VI Briefing, which was held on the 26th of February 2015.
