Dubai, UAE: Sojern, the leading marketing platform built for hospitality, is joining forces with PubMatic (Nasdaq: PUBM), an independent technology company shaping the future of digital advertising’s supply chain. This new relationship enables agencies and advertisers to access and activate Sojern’s extensive real-time travel data insights, with PubMatic’s premium inventory, to target travelers more accurately and in a privacy-compliant way.
Creating personalized, targeted campaigns requires finding the right mix of audiences and inventory supply. Curation is a preferred option, enabling real-time optimization and measurement so brands can create relevant ads that drive results. By using a multi-ID approach, curation enables advertisers to work directly with supply-side platforms (SSPs) to strategically combine first-party data, Sojern travel segments, and premium inventory.
“It’s clear that curation offers an exciting future for programmatic advertising, and while we’ve worked with PubMatic for many years, this partnership shows that we’re committed to delivering vertical-specific curated advertising to our clients,” said Josh Beckwith, Vice President, Global Corporate Sales at Sojern. “This relationship will fuse Sojern’s best-in-class travel data and multi-ID audiences with PubMatic’s best-in-class inventory, and allow us to optimize both in real time, creating curated campaigns using our clients’ preferred supply path.”
The partnership unlocks new opportunities for advertisers to activate Sojern’s real-time vertical-specific traveler insights directly within PubMatic’s curation and data solution, Connect. This integration enables more precise targeting and transforms audience curation into a powerful tool for programmatic advertising and performance.
“Today’s advertising needs to work for everyone. Consumers want privacy and relevant ads, while brands need quality advertising space and brand safety,” said Amélie Grenier-Bolay, Country Manager, Italy & MENA, PubMatic. “Strategic curation brings together advertisers, publishers, and audiences by filtering content for quality and relevance. This partnership with Sojern is a perfect example, providing marketers with access to travel data for more effective targeting while ensuring privacy protection and maintaining brand safety. The result is better transparency, more control, and stronger performance across the board.”
