Nova Enables Social Display Programmatically for 5,000 BrandsPolar has spun out its programmatic solutions for brands and agencies into a standalone business, Nova. The business is accelerating investment in the talent and technology powering Social Display, its flagship creative solution that has been adopted by 5,000 brands to activate 12,000 campaigns in 30+ countries in the past year. Polar has provided hundreds of trusted publishers with creative ad format technology since 2013. Revenue soared in 2020, growing 93% for its publisher solutions and 331% for its programmatic solutions for brands and agencies, now operated as Nova. Nova's mission is to build bridges, not walls. "The creative that brands build for walled gardens is beautiful, engaging and effective. Until now, it has been stuck within their walls. When the same creative built for Facebook (News - Alert) or Instagram is distributed programmatically on the open web at scale, brands see a demonstrable increase in the results that matter most to them," Kunal Gupta, CEO. "Brands are looking for solutions to unlock the full value of their creative investments." Brands and agencies use Social Display with Nova to repurpose social creative built for walled gardens like Facebook and Instagram to run programmatically, at scale, on the open web. Amazon, Aerican Express, L'Oréal, McDonalds, Microsoft (News - Alert), P&G, Samsung, Spotify, Starbucks and Walmart are some of the 5,000 brands that activated 12,000 campaigns in 30+ countries with Nova in the past year. IPG has scaled Social Display with Nova. 250 IPG clients have activated 900 campaigns for Social Display with Nova in 22 countries during the past year alone.
