AI and future IAB Australia is actively investing in forward-looking measurement and impact assessment tools, including an AI Impact Assessment tool and Future of Measurement initiatives, indicating a strong opening for partnerships around advanced analytics, TAM forecasting, and advertising effectiveness solutions.

Retail media Recent partnerships to launch a Retail Media Certification Program with Coles and a joint Australian Retail Media certification with IAB Europe suggest opportunities to offer measurement audits, certification services, and standardized retail media analytics for retailers and their agencies.

Video and metrics The rollout of a Video Measurement Framework signals demand for video-specific measurement, verification, and analytics services that align with digital video campaigns across platforms and supply chains.

Industry standards IAB Australia focuses on standards, guidelines, and data privacy, creating a potential client need for compliance services, adtech governance, data protection assessments, and standardized reporting templates for an audited digital supply chain.

Scale and reach With a mid-market size and revenue in the low millions, IAB Australia represents a gatekeeper and network opportunity for selling industry-wide solutions such as audience measurement, partner ecosystems, and enterprise-grade marketing technology integrations to its member base.
