Wayne will give us a tour of the programmatic landscape and explain the various types of companies and roles in the industry. A working knowledge of programmatic is so valuable to our students - it is one of the fastest growing areas of the industry with a demand for talent. We are so grateful to Wayne for giving us the low-down!!! Wayne was one of the earliest users of programmatic technologies in the UK and has since held various positions which have helped brands leverage the increasing importance of programmatic. He founded The Programmatic Advisory (TPA) in 2016 to take this to the next level with a completely non-conflicted consulting service. Wayne is a current member of the Drum Digerati (the top 100 most influential people in advertising in the UK) and has been short-listed for Digital Trading Leader of the Year twice.
