Data collaboration is essential to allow brands to get the most value from their first-party data. This integration means delivering better advertising experiences to customers and gives advertisers what they want most – greater relevance, reach, and measurement.

Liz Adeniji, regional vice president, of Asia-Pacific and Japan at Twilio Segment, commented

A recent Twilio study found that about 7 in 10 businesses in Asia-Pacific have already turned to using first-party data primarily due to the inadequate visibility over third parties’ data safeguards, management of consent, and regulatory compliance. Our new integration with Yahoo will make it easier for these businesses to use their valuable first-party data in a much more meaningful way, in real-time, and most importantly, with utmost relevance to their intended audience. This will enable them to unleash the potential of first-party data across screens to deliver more personalised and engaging campaigns.
