Otta's take

Sam Franklin headshot

Sam Franklin

CEO of Otta

Commerce marketing is a huge business with billions of pounds spent every year on adverts. Companies that help businesses create and deliver more targeted adverts can command a lot of value. Criteo is one company operating in this space.

Criteo is a personalized retargeting company connects 22,000+ marketers and media owners through its Commerce Media Platform, delivering richer consumer experiences. Criteo uses machine-learning technology and data to drive performance, helping marketers and media owners reach their goals.

As marketers are increasingly looking for commerce media solutions, Criteo is operating in a sought-after space. Further, around 73% of media owners seek to optimise media performance as a way to both generate awareness and drive revenue, meaning the company has a significant potential client base. Criteo has continued to make headway here, driving 5 billion ads per day, and is well set to see further adoption of its platform.
