Together, the Council will identify pivotal shifts across areas like live sports, CTV, and more to help brands unlock valuable, purchase-based methodologies that improve measurement, optimize performance, and drive growth. At launch, Council members include Damian Garbaccio, Chief Commercial & Marketing Officer at Affinity Solutions; Doug Campbell, CSO at DoubleVerify; Chase Miller, CPO at Claritas; Nishat Mehta, CEO at Lexitas, former President at Circana; and Kelley O’Hara, former professional soccer player, BreakAway Data ambassador, and host of the Sports Are Fun! podcast.
