Summary

In this interview, Emmanuel Crego, managing director of the Values group, describes how Values.media is rolling out agent-to-agent TV advertising buying, already live with M6 and France Télévisions, following TF1. Agents communicate in real time about available inventory to build campaign scenarios, with the final negotiation remaining human. This buying mode currently covers TV sponsorship, which accounts for around 10% of the French linear TV media budget, or more than €300 million. Five campaigns have already been run with TF1 since June. Values.media has also connected buying agents to Meta, TikTok, Equativ, Pubmatic, Amazon DSP and Prisma, and is in discussions with players in DOOH and radio.
