NightVision, designed and developed specifically to tap into load shedding schedules and activate media exposures in real-time. This first-of-its-kind AdTech, developed with insights into human behaviour, API integrations, and geo-fencing capabilities, making it possible to boost investment in areas where we know we can capture a more attentive audience digitally during load shedding.
The negative impact of load shedding on businesses is monumental, with an estimated loss of over R1.2tn ($65bn) to the economy. Advertising spend is also under scrutiny, because of the effect that these power cuts have on delivering paid-for exposures on channels.
