Way.io’s platform is used by many of the world’s largest brands, agencies, media owners, and demand partners including Alibaba, JD, NANFU, VIP.com, Meituan and supply partners like Bytedance, Tencent, Baidu, Kuaishou.
“This strategic alliance with Way.io brings new opportunities to China’s substantial digital landscape, offering unparalleled access to global digital DOOH properties,” said Tal Jacobson, Perion’s CEO. “This, together with our recent entry into Brazil, marks another significant step in fulfilling Perion’s commitment to expand our global footprint.”
Aileen Ku, General Manager, China at Hivestack said, “Programmatic DOOH is an increasingly popular option that brings the best of digital technology to traditional OOH. Through this partnership with Way.io, we are able to help Chinese brands engage with Chinese customers by adding our 1 million+ premium DOOH inventory in China into Way.io’s omni-channel platform. With increasing demand for outbound business, we hope to roll out our partnership internationally, providing Way.io with instant access to premium DOOH inventory in over 35 markets.”
Derek Du, Founder & CEO at Way.io added, “The use of programmatic technology ensures the best possible digital outreach in an all-encompassing media mix strategy. As a leading quantitative advertising platform, the core competitive edge lies in data empowerment. With the establishment of a global media network, the partnership with Hivestack is a key element of Way.io’s global expansion strategy. This collaboration will offer advertisers a range of innovative media advertising formats that are visually striking, along with new methods of data-driven intelligent ad placements. This enhancement in Way.io’s ability to reach a comprehensive media audience not only signals an elevation in domestic programmatic advertising to meet international standards but also marks the official entry into the DSPOOH (DSP+DOOH) digital era. Working together, we look forward to shaping the future!”
