McCormick commented on the future of the digital advertising industry: "Key elements of first-party data, privacy, and trust are now shaping a new era of digital advertising. To be successful in today's marketplace, brands, agencies, and publishers must prioritize data collection, activation and unification, and do so in a transparent, secure and privacy-compliant manner."

"Their success will rely on the integration of smart technology, AI-driven insights, and trusted partnerships," he continued. "Those who embrace transparency as the foundation of their strategies, like Collective Audience, I believe will thrive in this rapidly changing ecosystem."
