Nielsen, a global leader in audience measurement, data and analytics, announced that LG Ad Solutions will provide Nielsen with its ACR data for use in its national TV measurement service, giving Nielsen the largest ACR data footprint in the industry. LG Ad Solutions is providing Nielsen with ACR data for both linear and CTV measurement, providing greater stability for Nielsen National TV audience estimates. Nielsen is also receiving LG ACR data at the household level.
Through this agreement, advertisers activating campaigns on LG smart TVs will have the opportunity to receive ‘Always On’ streaming measurement and big data from LG Ad Solutions via Nielsen ONE Ads starting in the first quarter of 2024. Nielsen will measure all ad impressions, inclusive of co-viewing, on advertisers’ campaigns, giving advertisers a broader view of performance metrics to fuel cross-platform campaigns.
In addition to the big data expansion, the deal unlocks CTV data for Nielsen’s Ad Intel solution, enabling an increased level of measurement and visibility into competitive advertising spend. This allows Nielsen to gain advertising intelligence capabilities on streaming platforms in addition to its existing linear capabilities, providing advertisers and agencies more valuable insight into their ad performance on the platforms.
