Overriding industry themes in Marketing & UX Tech Google and Facebook



Google and Facebook jointly control about 50% of all online advertising. Their dominance is driven by their effectiveness



Recent political and public opinion backlash: pressure to get fake & harmful content under control and to protect consumer privacy



Biggest ever overhaul of EU data protection rules, in force from May 2018. Lauded as benchmark by some, overreaching by others



Concepts include: right to be forgotten, consent, data breach notification, privacy by design and enforcement



Estimates on fraud vary, but advertisers easily waste about 5-10% of their budget to fraud. 1/3 of ad impressions non-human



Major hacks are becoming more common. As a result, “we all have to assume that our identities have already been stolen.”

Artificial Intelligence



UX and marketing tech are at the forefront of AI-adoption: AI bots, programmatic ad buying, predictive sales and more



Extremely high expectations are not yet matched by reality (example: bots are still underperforming)

Corporate innovation



Noticeable sense of urgency with corporates to modernize their client-facing applications and improve interactions



Some corporates are still searching for workable model to collaborate successfully with startups



AR & VR could make marketing and customer experience more fun and effective. Customers are looking for experiences not ads



However, industry is still eagerly awaiting a real break-through so far

GDPR

A need to address privacy concerns and new (GDPR) regulations, while providing a seamless UX Challenging task to build the best UX practices for privacy notices to achieve data protection standards

Regulators want

Channels want

Maximise revenue per user Offer privacy protection Be transparent to advertisers
