Ad-ID Announces Partnership with Univision to Deploy Enhanced Cross-Channel Asset Identification

Improved identification and tracking support increased integration of CTV in multichannel advertising campaigns

Ad-ID, the industry standard for identifying advertising assets across all media platforms, has announced a new partnership with Univision, the leading Spanish-language content company in the United States, to support advertising asset identification and tracking for Univision’s extensive media portfolio. The agreement will significantly improve targeting and delivery for Univision and its advertising partners, creating tangible value for the company’s audience of Hispanic viewers.

Today’s typical media diet consists of a diverse range of TV, audio and digital content, delivered across multiple devices and platforms. The significant growth of CTV, including new streaming services and device features, has challenged brands to reassess their advertising strategies and synthesize planning and measurement across both linear and digital channels. Ad-ID’s centralized, web-based system simplifies the process of management and attribution by ingesting linear data for digital use and offering real-time metadata creative lookups.

Univision’s comprehensive media portfolio includes two broadcast networks, 10 cable networks, and more than 60 local television stations in major Hispanic markets. By reducing frequency and ensuring correct asset delivery, Ad-ID will support Univision’s mission to empower Hispanic viewers with relevant information and entertainment content. The company’s new partnership with Ad-ID will also drive contextual targeting and measurement enhancements across Univision’s network of media assets, providing increased value for Univision advertisers.
