Before joining Glanbia, you spent a number of years working on the agency side. How do you think it helped prepare you for your work at Glanbia? Did it shape how you engage with the agencies that you work with today?2. Let’s start to decompose retail media into a number of different capabilities, starting with search. Is search still the most important part of a brand’s retail media strategy?3. It seems like every week, a new retail media platform is launched. How can brands hope to manage investments across so many platforms or are some changes that need to take place around consolidation or integration that allows for more automation before brands can think beyond Amazon & Walmart?4. RMNs are increasingly promoting upper funnel ad units like offsite programmatic and streaming TV. Are these services currently appealing to brands for investment? What’s keeping these offerings from fully replacing traditional channels like linear TV and print?5. What are your guiding principles around partnering with both brand and customer teams in establishing retail media plans? 6. In-store retail media is another set of ad units that are quickly emerging on the retail media landscape. How do you think about employing these tools from a brand perspective? Is this more of a trade function or should brands be thinking about how to deploy for full funnel strategic activation?7. How are you using AMC today?
