Session: Cultural Fit as a Media Effectiveness Multiplier
Simon McDonald, DVJ Insights
Does advertising become more effective when the values communicated in an ad align with the cultural values of its audience?
Simon McDonald will present new research from DVJ Insights, developed together with the University of Amsterdam, exploring the role of cultural fit in media effectiveness. Using AI to analyse more than 900 video ads, the research connects advertising content with cultural values across different markets.
The session will explore what cultural fit means for attention, message recall and brand response, and what this means for media researchers, agencies, publishers and advertisers.
