“Through our partnership, we are helping marketers and advertisers get greater clarity, visibility, and control in how their marketing dollars are creating impact across their multiscreen campaigns.”
Jason Manningham, chief executive at Blockgraph, said: “We are thrilled to be working with Kantar to advance the future of multiscreen TV measurement.
“Our partnership with Kantar uses direct matching, resulting in a 10x increase in match rate, fuelling improved brand awareness outcomes for all forms of convergent TV.”
