Early in 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 crisis, Amobee and 50 other industry partners founded the AdTechCares coalition in order to raise awareness and combat misinformation surrounding the pandemic. The initial PSA campaign invited media partners to contribute impressions to a series of video, connected TV, DOOH, and audio ads that led consumers to factual websites such as the World Health Organization (WHO) to increase awareness.
More than a year after its founding, AdTechCares is still going strong and has expanded its COVID-19 PSA campaign to include an array of awareness campaigns focusing on global issues such as Black Lives Matter and Campaign Zero, pro-vaccination PSAs, and supporting causes related to environmental issues.
AdTechCares’ latest initiative is the COVID Vaccine Trust Campaign. AdTechCares is partnering with the Veterans Coalition for Vaccination (VCV) and Venables Bell + Partners to increase public trust in COVID-19 vaccinations across the US.
How GeoEdge and Verve Group are Supporting AdTechCares with ‘Fallback Ads’
GeoEdge detects low-quality ads and verifies that sites and apps offer a clean, safe, and engaging user experience. Our real-time security solutions make sure each bad ad is replaced with a clean, pre-approved, creative ‘fallback ad’.
The partnership between Verve Group and GeoEdge allows us to identify undesirable ads on Verve Group’s exchange and replace them with pre-approved fallback ads in real-time. Together, we are supporting the pro-vaccination PSA campaign with vaccine trust creative content provided by the AdTechCares team and their partners.
“It’s amazing to see that our industry and collective technology are able to do something great for the world”, said Iva Parvanova, Director of Account Management at Verve Group and AdTechCares Founding Member.
Previously, the fallback ad was an in-house creative endeavor from Verve Group, but the team saw the opportunity to use the space for promoting the greater good. The new creative content is now available in all display ad sizes and is estimated to fire ~20-30M* monthly impressions in this campaign alone.
“It feels great that we can extend the borders of our partnership with Verve Group beyond day-to-day activity,” said Yuval Shiboli, Regional Director EMEA at GeoEdge. “AdTechCares is a great opportunity to harness technology and resources for a good cause,” he added.
We encourage our allies and other industry leaders to use innovation and creativity to find new ways to collaborate to drive change, raise awareness, and use digital advertising to change the world for the better.
