Sovrn Launches Publisher Steering CommitteeCollaborative effort aims to optimize ad ops yield at scale BOULDER, Colo., June 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Sovrn, a publisher technology platform that helps content creators remain independent and thrive on the open web, today announced the launch of a new steering committee to collaboratively tackle the challenges publishers face in efficiently optimizing programmatic ad operations and yield at scale. Composed of leading publishers such as Ziff Davis, LoveToKnow Media, and Publishers Clearing House, among others, the committee's mission is to provide a roadmap and guidance to prioritize development of new tools, processes and technologies that deliver the products they need from their ad tech partners to maximize ad operations efficiency. "I am excited to be part of Sovrn's steering committee," said Mark Obermoller, Senior Director of Programmatic Strategy for Ziff Davis. "Not only can Ziff Davis help influence the development of key products that better align with our strategic objectives, but we can also help positively impact the broader industry."
Over the next 12 months, the steering committee will focus on unlocking seemingly intractable issues such as addressability, first-party data deployment, marketplace development, yield management and robust data insights. The group will work with the Sovrn Ad Management team to explore and extract the functionality delivered with the Ad Management platform, including its efficient management of programmatic ad operations and yield across hundreds of websites, in order to innovate new solutions for publishers who require control over their owned and operated media properties. "At Sovrn, we believe that the challenges confronting publishers can be better addressed through collaboration and shared insights," said Peter Cunha, Managing Director of Sovrn Ad Management. "Our intention with this steering committee is to create a platform for shaping the future of our ad operations software, and more importantly, to engage our customers and partners in ways that foster an environment of collaboration that benefits the industry as a whole."
