The partnership with WPP and IBM aims to leverage LinkedIn’s understanding of buyer groups to inform the development of more effective advertising campaigns through ‘WPP Open for B2B’.
Overall, the collaboration between WPP, IBM, and LinkedIn is set to address complex B2B marketing challenges by leveraging AI technology and trusted data to deliver personalized experiences for buying groups.
