NEW YORK, March 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SpringServe, the leading ad serving platform for connected TV (CTV), today announced a strategic collaboration with SXSW, to power inventory on their video on demand content, both online and on the SXSW TV apps.

SpringServe’s advanced ad serving and inventory management technology helps publishers streamline their monetization to capture the full value of their inventory, all while ensuring high quality ad experiences. SXSW will leverage SpringServe to ensure high-quality in-app video advertising experiences for attendees.

"We created SXSW TV to provide our audience with a premium viewing experience wherever they are. SpringServe’s industry-leading technology has allowed us to effortlessly connect our sponsors to our audience in new and exciting ways," said Justin Bankston, CTO, SXSW.

With their online schedule and connected TV apps, SXSW is able to bring its amazing content directly to attendees, whether they are in the audience in Austin or on the other side of the world. The chronological and geographic barriers have all come down, for both the creators who make the event, and the audience eager to learn from them.
