WAW 2/26/14 Sponsored by Centro

This Month's event marks our 1 Year Anniversary in Houston!


Topic: Audience Buying: The Harmony between Art and Science.
Audience buying uses advanced automation, bidding, and learning technologies to target the right user, in the right place, at the right time, and with the right message. Despite the significant amount of technology powering these efforts, humans still play a critical role in the success of digital advertising campaigns. Our goal for this luncheon is to make you smarter about the shifts currently taking place in the industry and demonstrate why audience buying truly is the harmony between art and science.

About the Speaker:

As Manager of Programmatic Operations, Dan Berns leads the technical side of Centro's audience buying team. Prior to Centro, Dan worked in Account Management at Accuen (Omnicom Media Group’s programmatic agency) and held a variety of marketing roles at Ticketmaster. Dan is currently pursuing an MS in Marketing Analysis from the Charles H. Kellstadt Graduate School of Business at DePaul University, from which he also holds an MBA in Marketing Strategy/Entrepreneurship and a BS in Marketing. He plays an active role in the community by sitting on the Junior Board of Rock for Kids, an organization that provides music education to underserved children in Chicago.

About the Speaker:

Brad has been in the digital space for over 12 years where he cut his teeth in paid and organic search. He's worked both sides of the fence, both agency and client-side with recent roles as the Digital Brand manager for Samsung Mobile and a Strategy Consultant for imc2. It was at imc2 where Brad stared at hockey stick like mobile growth charts for hours a day and realized maybe being a sales guy in the mobile space is something he to pursue. So, long story short he changed career paths and joined Millennial Media as the Director of Sales in Dallas where he's been since 2010.

Who is Millennial Media?  The company’s technology, tools and services help app developers and mobile website publishers maximize their advertising revenue, acquire users for their apps and gain insight about their users, and the company works with advertisers to deliver ad experiences to consumers on their mobile connected devices.
