Key growth areas include retail media, connected TV, AI-driven ads, and creator ecosystems. AI is evolving from campaign optimization to shaping consumer discovery and commerce, creating new advertising opportunities. Investors should focus on which platforms capture budget growth rather than overall spend increases.
