With digital advertising thriving at the forefront of India’s growth story, we are poised to push the boundaries of innovation. This year, our mission is to advance our collective efforts in digital measurement, in collaboration with key industry stakeholders, ensuring we lead with purpose and progress.”
He also mentioned, “At the ISA, as a founding member of the WFA, we are committed to fostering stronger partnerships to drive greater effectiveness and efficiency in advertising. As one of the founders of ASCI, we are also collaborating with the ASCI Academy to support education, training, and research, with the goal of promoting ethical and transparent advertising practices. As one of the three constituent bodies of BARC, we are closely partnering with it towards advertisers getting robust and credible data and are optimistic about further partnering with them in the digital measurement area.”
Kataria extended his appreciation to various industry organizations for their steadfast support, which he believes will be vital in achieving new objectives.
He expressed, “We sincerely thank all industry organizations for their unwavering support, which will undoubtedly help us reach new heights. I also extend my deep appreciation to ISA members for their continued commitment to all our initiatives.”
