On September 28, 2023, SmartyAds captured Best Buy-Side Platform and Best Customer Service titles in the 2023 VideoWeek’s European Video Awards (EVA) ceremony. With our Liz Tokareva, SVP, In-house Products, in attendance, this was a thrilling black-tie event, which marked the pinnacle of our most recent product development and customer service efforts.
With SmartyAds’ DSP winning the Best Buy-Side Platform and our team of account managers being recognized as the Best Customer Service team, we have once again confirmed our leading role in shaping the programmatic advertising market. Let’s take a closer look at the awards ceremony.
Briefly about the European Video Awards
The European Video Awards is a renowned platform honoring creativity in video and CTV advertising. With a focus on outstanding achievements, the event highlights remarkable successes across five vital categories: technology, company, team, individual (leadership), and campaigns. These categories aim to recognize and applaud the winners for their contributions that have driven the industry's progress. This year, we eagerly anticipated SmartyAds being counted among them, so we went to London to experience everything in the first row.
The finest ad tech community and industry masterminds gathered at Pan Pacific – a hotel featuring a combination of elegant luxury, thoughtful design, and the highest level of comfort.
A team of marketing experts presided over the dynamic ceremony, recognizing the dedicated efforts of those propelling innovation in the field. Assessed by seasoned industry professionals and tech leads hailing from BBC StoryWorks, Heineken, Rakuten, Omnicom Media Group, Pluto TV, and others, the nominees in five key categories were recognized for their disrupting teams and innovative platforms.
