WPP Media and Criteo Launch First-of-Its-Kind Activation using Open Intelligence to Scale Commerce Signals in CTV
NEW YORK , July 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Criteo (Nasdaq: CRTO), the global platform connecting the commerce ecosystem, announced a new partnership with WPP Media to scale commerce intelligence to Connected TV (CTV). Through the combination of WPP Media's Open Intelligence, its scaled relationships with premium supply partners, and Criteo's real-time commerce signals, advertisers are now able to reach qualified consumers at scale across premium CTV inventory.
Turning Brand Budgets into Business Outcomes in any DSP
As brands increasingly aim to hold all marketing investments accountable to business outcomes, advertisers need smarter ways to connect with audiences across channels like CTV. This collaboration offers a turnkey solution: curated audiences based on high-fidelity commerce signals enhanced and scaled by Open Intelligence—activated in any Demand-side Platform (DSP).
Powered by Criteo's Commerce Grid Supply-side Platform (SSP), curated Deal IDs enable advertisers to seamlessly activate commerce-first CTV strategies across the DSP of their choice, connecting ad exposure to measurable outcomes like foot traffic and sales.
'There is a confluence occurring where traditional brand ambitions of reach and frequency are being met with the fast-emerging metrics of performant commerce media. By combining the strength of Criteo's commerce signals with Open Intelligence, we're accelerating the assimilation of the two—unlocking full-funnel, performance-driven strategies in CTV,' said Sandy Welsch, Executive Director Global Commerce Partnerships & Tech Enablement at WPP Media.
Bringing Commerce and Premium Supply Together
Criteo's real-time commerce signals originate from 17,000 e-commerce sites, 200 global retail partners, and thousands of open web publishers, spanning over $1 trillion in annual ecommerce sales. Amplifying those signals through WPP Media's Open Intelligence creates high-intent, shopper audiences built to convert. As Criteo delivers these audiences against premium CTV inventory, brands are now able to access these segments across their preferred DSP partners, streamlining activation.
'With Commerce Grid, Criteo is giving advertisers a seamless way to activate high-performing audiences on Roku. We're excited to see this partnership showcase the power of CTV in helping brands drive full-funnel outcomes,' said Lindsay Pullins, Director, Head of Business Development & Partnerships, Commerce and Performance at Roku.
'This partnership is about more than better targeting. It's about giving brands the ability to reach broad audiences with the same level of precision and measurability they expect from digital,' said Joseph Meehan, General Manager, Global Commerce Supply at Criteo. 'By combining the unique strengths of each company into one streamlined solution, we're giving brands a smarter way to activate high-intent audiences and transform CTV into a true performance channel.'

S&P, Nasdaq futures rise ahead of data, Fed decision and Big Tech earnings
S&P 500 E-minis were up 0.12%, Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 0.23% and Dow E-minis were up 0.04%. (EPA Images pic) NEW YORK : S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures edged up today as investors braced for fresh economic data, a Federal Reserve (Fed) policy decision and earnings reports from Wall Street's tech heavyweights. At 6.58am, S&P 500 E-minis were up 7.75 points, or 0.12%, Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 53 points, or 0.23%, Dow E-minis were up 18 points, or 0.04% The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq snapped their record run yesterday due to disappointing results from Dow components UnitedHealth and Merck. With Wall Street's megacap giants set to unveil their earnings, investors are expecting markets to hit new highs after Microsoft and Meta Platforms report after the bell. Amazon and Apple, which are reporting tomorrow, are also in focus. Shares of Starbucks jumped 4.5% in premarket trading after the coffee chain operator reported a higher-than-expected revenue jump in the third quarter. Global payments processing company Visa fell 1.7%, despite beating estimates for third-quarter earnings, as it kept its annual net revenue growth forecast unchanged. A wave of key economic data, including an early reading of second-quarter GDP at 8.30am and July private payrolls, will offer fresh insight into the economy's strength and the resilience of the labour market amid ongoing trade tensions. Economists polled by Reuters expect GDP to have rebounded at a 2.4% annualised pace, following a 0.5% decline last quarter. Investors will also closely monitor the interest rate decision from the Fed, which is widely expected to hold rates steady. While analysts anticipate little drama from the announcement itself, investors will be parsing chair Jerome Powell's comments for any hints on future policy direction, especially as the Fed navigates political pressure and assesses the effects of tariffs on inflation. 'Based on the stronger data two weeks ago and with two more prints to come before the September meeting, we see no compelling reason why chair Powell would change his tune at today's press conference,' said Kenneth Broux, head of corporate research, FX and rates at Societe Generale. Meanwhile, two days of US-China negotiations ended in both sides agreeing to seek an extension of their 90-day tariff truce, which expires on Aug 12. US officials said it would be up to President Donald Trump to approve the extension. South Korea was also lobbying to secure a trade deal ahead of Trump's Aug 1 deadline as its officials met US commerce secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington. The EU on Sunday joined the list of US trading partners that have struck agreements with Washington. Its framework deal with the US halved import duties to 15% for the bloc. Among other earnings moves, Humana and GE HealthCare gained 8.3% and 1.3%, respectively, after the companies raised their annual profit forecasts.

Equities close lower as earnings weigh; Fed statement on tap
NEW YORK: US stocks closed lower on Tuesday as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq retreated from record highs after some disappointing corporate earnings, while investors awaited a Federal Reserve policy statement. A host of Dow components reported earnings, with UnitedHealth, Boeing and Merck all closing lower after their quarterly results. Health insurer UnitedHealth stumbled 7.5 per cent and was the biggest drag on the Dow after a disappointing profit forecast, while Boeing declined 4.4 per cent despite reporting a smaller second-quarter loss. Merck dipped 1.7 per cent after the drugmaker reported quarterly results and said it was extending its pause on shipments of HPV vaccine Gardasil to China until at least the end of 2025 due to persistent weakness in demand. "Earnings have been a bit of a mix. Economic data has been somewhat mixed too, but not enough to move the needle in terms of the Fed," said Tim Ghriskey, senior portfolio strategist at Ingalls & Snyder in New York. "The next two days, you have Microsoft, Meta, Apple, Amazon - those are big companies, and they will move markets depending on how the earnings are and how the outlooks are." Earnings from megacaps Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Apple are due this week and are likely to have a strong influence on market direction due to their large market weightings. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 204.57 points, or 0.46 per cent, to 44,632.99, the S&P 500 lost 18.91 points, or 0.30 per cent, to 6,370.86 and the Nasdaq Composite lost 80.29 points, or 0.38 per cent, to 21,098.29. United Parcel Service shares plunged 10.6 per cent as the package delivery company posted earnings and again declined to issue annual revenue and margin forecasts, deepening concerns that US President Donald Trump's continually changing trade policy is weighing on the company. That helped drag down the Dow Jones Transport Average by 2.3 per cent for its biggest daily percentage decline since May 21. Likewise, Whirlpool plummeted 13.4 per cent after the home appliances maker slashed its annual earnings forecast and dividend, citing pressure from a pull-forward in imports by rivals ahead of Trump's tariffs. Procter & Gamble shares shed 0.3 per cent, as the maker of consumer goods such as dish soap and toilet paper forecast annual results below estimates and said it would raise prices on some products to offset the tariff impact. Nearly 200 S&P 500 components have reported earnings and are posting results 6.4 per cent above expectations, according to LSEG data, compared with an average of 6.3 per cent over the last four quarters. On the economic front, consumer confidence in July increased more than expected to 97.2. In June, US job openings and hiring, or JOLTS data, had decreased, pointing to a further slowdown in labor market activity. The JOLTS report was the first in a string of data on the labor market this week, culminating in Friday's government payrolls report. The Fed is largely expected to leave rates unchanged at its policy announcement on Wednesday. Remarks by Fed Chair Jerome Powell will be closely monitored to gauge the timing of any potential rate cuts. Key negotiations between the US and China completed their second day in Stockholm as the world's two leading economies aim to resolve their trade conflict, with Trump saying he was told by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that the latter had a very good meeting with Chinese officials. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 1.03-to-1 ratio on the NYSE and by a 2.08-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 posted 32 new 52-week highs and nine new lows, while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 76 new highs and 83 new lows. Volume on US exchanges was 18.01 billion shares, compared with the 17.89 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.
