Strategies and Technologies to Optimize Media Budgets

In a landscape where costs are rising and advertising platforms are increasingly automated, optimizing the media mix is not just an opportunity—it is an urgency for those who want to maximize the impact of their budget. This talk explores a strategic and operational approach to media budget optimization, based on the combined use of open-source technologies and proprietary tools like Alvie, developed in-house to improve cross-channel efficiency; the integration of predictive analytics, signal automation, and incremental measurement to guide smarter, more informed media decisions; and a reflection on the limitations of in-platform optimization and how to complement it with an independent decision-making layer. A concrete budget optimization simulation will be presented, based on real scenarios and logics already applied in internal use cases.
