Disney expects 80% hike in automated revenue, ramps up on adtech and programmatic Details 03 March 2021 The Disney advertising sales and the technology team is now working to build what it called a “highly-advanced and data-informed audience-based ad server” that sits at the center of the Disney Platform. According to a press statement, with this single unified ad platform, advertisers can “maximise yield on their advertising spend”. Disney initially started the experiment with Disney Hulu XP, enabling advertisers to buy once and deliver to audiences across Hulu and Disney’s addressable inventory. Disney said that this allowed advertisers to buy and manage inventory programmatically across Disney properties.
