    Insights from our Anzu.io x iion Q&A at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity! iion’s co-founder Giuseppe Martoriello sat down with Ben Fenster Anzu’s co-founder and CPO to discuss successful campaigns and the future of game advertising. Here are a couple of standout moments: 📌 iion’s most recent campaign for Lenovo reached and engaged a core audience of males 24-35 across diverse gaming environments. Lenovo achieved significant brand uplift and impressive audience engagement by using a mix of in-game, around-the-game, and away-from-the-game ads. 📌Anzu.io's Levis Jeans campaign achieved high social interaction and prompted a Reddit thread about the advertised jeans. This demonstrates the power of quality game ads in driving organic engagement. Watch the full Q&A to discover more. #GameAdvertising #iionxAnzu #InnovativeAds #AudienceEngagement

    AdNews Australia shared insights from iion’s intimate Cannes Lion Roundtables.🦁🎮 Thanks Jason Pollock for the write up. Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, we hosted two impactful discussions on the gaming - and the audience, attention and impact it has in modern marketing. We're honoured to have IAB’s EVP and CMO Carryl Pierre-Drews, moderate and steer the sessions. Key insights: 🔹Karen Nelson-Field PhD of Amplified Intelligencee: Gaming is less prone to distraction and captures high-quality attention, offering a 10x increase over traditional web platforms. 🔹Daniel Lyas of Amplified Intelligence: Traditional metrics such as ‘reach’ are flawed. Human-based measurement enhances brand outcomes. 🔹Claire Nance from Activision Blizzard: Brand integration in gaming needs to enhance the player experience, add value, and break stereotypes. 🔹Amanda Rubin of Enthusiast Gaming: One of the biggest mistakes brands make is oversimplifying what gaming is. Many brands don’t fully understand the diversity and breadth of the gaming industry. 🔹Andrew Douthwaite of Dubit: Gaming is not just about entertainment but also has a significant social component. Platforms like Roblox offer opportunities for brands to build communities by authentically engaging with players. 🔹PHD’s Melissa Cosentini: Marketers and brands should integrate gaming into overall strategies and not see it as an isolated element, which leads to ineffective strategies. 🔹Dominic Powers from dentsu: Innovative virtual and real-world integrations, such as KFC’s virtual stores in China, highlight that traditional media planning approaches are ineffective in such a complex and rapidly evolving market. 🔹Reckitt’s Raghunandan Srinivasan: Gaming platforms are immersive social spaces where users hang out and build communities. Brands must provide value without intrusion, with responsible marketing and data privacy being non-negotiable.
