About Attention Leaders

Realeyes developed the Attention Leaders program as a forum to extend the enriching conversations happening at industry events, attention forums, and in-person meetings where attention measurement paradigm is discussed, including its adoption and the appetite for standardization. 

 

The advertising industry is recognising the opportunity that attention metrics can bring especially considering the advent of cookie depreciation and performance proxies such as viewability falling short in assuring that ads are seen in full, or even noticed in the first place.

Providing insight into dimensions such attention duration, user interaction, the media context, all enable advertisers to accurately measure and optimize performance for the complexity of today’s media landscape.  

 

These Attention Leaders provide their first-hand experience and opinions on the attention measurement topic.
