ENGINE in the US, Europe, and Australia Rebrands to Big Village, Pioneering the Future of Global Advertising, Technology, and Data
Led by Kasha Cacy as Global CEO, Big Village comprises 450 employees globally, and growing; and is proud to be a team that brings together divergent perspectives that are interwoven throughout the team's process to unlock unexpected opportunities for clients.
Big Village brands and services include:
"When we take a look at what marketing organizations are dealing with today, it's become so complex; campaigns can no longer exist in silos," says Kasha Cacy, Global CEO, Big Village. "We are on a mission to rise to the challenge and solve the problems others have not been able to: providing true transparency in the programmatic marketplace, scaling niche audiences that are not neatly defined by behavioral data, and deeply integrating data and insights into the creative and media processes, to name a few."
The rebrand does not include ENGINE Group UK, owner of ad agency ENGINE Creative, acquired by Next 15 earlier this year. However, EMX does have employees that work in the UK.
Big Village is currently working on a number of big initiatives globally and prides itself on finding unconventional ways to solve big problems for its clients. For instance, in recent work with a prominent tourism group, Big Village encouraged its client to think about the marketing strategy not in terms of what it wanted to embody, but who it wanted to target to effectively reach new customers in the wake of the pandemic. Over the past two years, and ongoing, Big Village has helped this client increase tourism significantly.
A great example of how Big Village experts work together to solve big problems is the Ad Council "It's Up To You" COVID-19 Vaccine Education Initiative. The Ad Council partnered with Big Village to improve the quality of the audience they were targeting and better differentiate the vaccine hesitant from other groups, as well as activate that message across the most effective media channels. Leveraging unique targeting solutions, including Digital Audiences (insights) and EMX Data Connected Marketplace™, Big Village seamlessly targeted and activated audiences across EMX's media supply.
Big Village is also committed to partnering with outside technology solution companies to expand and further develop its offerings. EMX, by Big Village, partnered with Audigent, the leading data activation, curation, and identity company, to expand the first-party data capabilities of its Data Connected Marketplace.™ As a preferred SSP of Audigent's SmartPMP™ product, EMX provides greater audience lift, targeting, scale, and delivery.
