NBCUniversal and Vox Media today announced a new partnership with publisher Condé Nast to expand their combined ad platforms’ reach with millennial audiences.
Condé Nast will lend its data capabilities platform Spire and digital audiences to Vox Media (in which NBCU holds a $200 million stake) and NBCUniversal’s Concert advertising platform. The companies said the team up will help them reach over 200 million consumers and 99% of millennials in the U.S. across the three companies’ digital networks.
Condé Nast’s Spire combines digital behavioral data with online and offline purchase data to optimize campaigns in real time and includes targeting across social media.
Concert was jointly launched by Vox Media and NBCUniversal in April 2016
"When brand marketers choose Concert, they now gain access to the most trusted environment available in digital advertising today; the largest, most valuable audiences; and the best data insights from Condé Nast's Spire capabilities," said Jim Bankoff, CEO and chairman of Vox Media, in a statement.
