UAE’s Phi Advertising goes Programmatic with Lemma
The new partnership will focus on providing access to Phi’s premium digital billboards in UAE to global advertisers via Lemma.
Lemma, an independent Supply Side (SSP) Platform for DOOH & Phi advertising, a Naif Alrajhi Investment group company and UAE’s premium high-impact network of digital billboards, have partnered to make PHI’s widespread screen inventory available on Lemma’s DOOH SSP for programmatic purchase.
Phi advertising will leverage Lemma’s supply-side platform to make their highly trafficked roadside inventory available to global demand partners to expand their audience reach across premium locations in the UAE. With its integration with leading global DSPs and unprecedented flexibility, Lemma will make Phi’s DOOH inventory available worldwide via the platform for programmatic purchase. Lemma will also aid in boosting fill rates and improving DOOH yields for Phi while infusing the screens with programmatic capabilities of real-time ad sync with weather, traffic, footfalls, and other data variables.
