In this three-part series, PMW conducted exclusive research and spoke to a myriad of experts to uncover just where the digital advertising industry stands in terms of sustainability… and where it’s headed.

Amid trying economic times, bookmarked by a global pandemic and now a possible recession, sustainability appears to have fallen by the wayside, at least that’s what the data indicates.

Part two of this report unpacks what is being done to counteract the problem and why more digital advertisers should join the campaign. Who is driving change within the industry? What is motivating them to do so? And what results have they seen?

Within the research a pivotal discovery has been made regarding how sustainability investment should be viewed by digital advertisers. Having traditionally been framed as something largely done for optics, sustainability actually possesses great potential for promoting successful business outcomes when implemented strategically.

“Undoubtedly, in the past sustainability has been viewed as a luxury choice for businesses to create a USP purely for optics, not profit. Our work however, has revealed this simply shouldn't be the case,” says Adform Managing Director Phil Acton.

Sustainability is at a pivotal point, in our industry and beyond - consider this three-part report a guide to mitigating your organisation's carbon footprint… without it costing the earth.
