Nexxen Teams Up with The Trade Desk
Nexxen, a leading global advertising technology platform specializing in data and advanced TV, has announced a strategic partnership with The Trade Desk. This collaboration provides The Trade Desk’s advertisers with exclusive access to automatic content recognition (ACR) data segments, which enhance cross-channel and cross-device targeting capabilities, ultimately optimizing media investments across premium internet platforms.
Improving CTV Advertising
ACR data, which is often scattered across closed ecosystems, tackles significant challenges in CTV advertising, such as over-saturation and fragmented targeting. Nexxen’s ACR data segments are crafted to assist advertisers in broadening their reach among TV-viewing audiences while maintaining controlled frequency and competitive conquesting.
Data Availability Across Regions
Nexxen’s ACR data is now available on The Trade Desk’s platform for activation, establishing it as the first self-service TV data provider in several regions. This data encompasses both linear and streaming formats, organized by genres, networks, programs, and brand-level ad exposure, offering in-depth insights into TV viewing habits.

Ben Sylvan, VP of Data Partnerships at The Trade Desk, stressed the need for a comprehensive approach to TV media buying that integrates both linear and CTV strategies. He pointed out how Nexxen’s ACR data enables advertisers to gain insights into their audiences across various platforms and devices, facilitating smarter media budget investments.
