NO-HEADQUARTERS/REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PubMatic (Nasdaq: PUBM), an independent technology company delivering digital advertising’s supply chain of the future, today announced a global partnership with GroupM to enable GroupM Premium Marketplace in EMEA. A unified programmatic marketplace that will increase media buying transparency and efficiency, the partnership helps GroupM clients simplify the complexities of the open internet and sets the stage for the supply chain of the future.

Supported by a global partnership agreement with PubMatic, GroupM Premium Marketplace will provide clients with direct and advantaged access to high quality publisher inventory underpinned by new standards for performance measurement, further reducing opportunities for fraud and inventory misrepresentation in the media supply chain.

“Today’s programmatic ecosystem has become incredibly complex and inefficient, and clients are rightly concerned about transparency and accountability across the digital and programmatic supply chain,” said Andrew Meaden, GroupM’s Global Head of Investment. “GroupM Premium Marketplace solves these problems for clients by making the media buying process simpler and more transparent and by using PubMatic technology to ensure clients always receive the maximum benefit of GroupM’s unique size and scale.”

“We are thrilled that GroupM has selected PubMatic as a technology partner to enable GroupM Premium Marketplace. This partnership helps advertisers and publishers build a comprehensive media strategy for the safe, data-driven advertising of the future.

Both buyers and publishers get a simplified and more direct path to working together, which will allow for more joint innovation and improved transparency,” said Emma Newman, Chief Revenue Officer EMEA at PubMatic.
